All who knew Ed will miss his clever sense of humor and his generosity towards family and friends. His passions were always for his family, his roses, and his work in defense of our country.
Ed's long and distinguished career in service to our Air Force, Army, Navy and NASA led to his recent receipt of a Lifetime Achievement Award, which included the following description of his exceptional contributions to the defense of our country. "for his numerous and significant contributions to the ---- Program and our country's national defense. Through his dedication and untiring efforts and leadership during his distinguished professional career of over fifty years....In 1980, Ed co-founded XonTech, Inc......Perhaps one of Ed's most remarkable, and lasting achievements is that as he and his XonTech partners grew their company to 500 strong, he directly mentored numerous radar engineers and data analysts, and many are still contributing to the ----Program today, and will be for years to come."
Private viewing and graveside services for the family will be this Saturday, August 16th. Friends are invited to the Memorial Service and reception at 5:00 p.m. at the Fletcher home - 1429 Via Zumaya, Palos Verdes Estates, 90274.
