James H. Fletcher (1973)
Ed was a friend of my brother Carl Fletcher. I have many memories of Ed and my brother hanging out together and spending a lot of time each talking about their views in the world. At times, with their views being different, they both managed to always manage to respect each other's idea's. The three of us would just hang out in our basement, shoot pool and listen to Ed tell us jokes.
Thanks Ed for sharing this time with us. Rest well my friend.
James Fletcher
