New Beginnings
Regrettably, the chasm that had grown between Armstrong and Janet proved unbridgeable, leading to their separation in 1990. Four years later, their nearly four-decade-long marriage officially came to an end. In the same year, a glimmer of happiness emerged as Armstrong embarked on a new journey, exchanging vows with Carol Knight.
Yet, even amid this joyous occasion, a new concern gnawed at Armstrong’s heart. He harbored apprehensions that this fresh chapter in his life might inadvertently create distance between him and his adult sons, Mark and Eric. To counter this, he devised a thoughtful plan. Armored with golf clubs, he whisked his sons away on a journey to Scotland and Ireland, forging new connections over the pristine greens as they played a sport that brought them closer despite the passage of time.
