Ed Brown - Estes

From Matt Steele - NAR Facebook Page -
It is with great sadness that I must pass on to the group that my good friend "Ed" Edwin Brown passed away today after a long illness. Ed was responsible for overseeing the production of almost every Estes model rocket motors you have ever flown. He started at Estes as a machinist, working for Vern, but eventually ended up over all motor production. He probably knew more about black powder model rocket engines than anyone one else. He was always a true gentleman. He will be missed.
