Stopping what they died for would render their sacrifice pointless. It's the exact opposite. When people die for these reasons we put even more effort into it to get it right. That's what we owe them. To not let them die in vain! Not today, not ever!
That's why we went to the Moon in first place, at least so quickly. JFK died serving his country and we just owed him.
