Tribute from Morrie Fenton
Sadly Ed Simmonds has now gone to that great Doover in the sky that he often spoke of.
I first met Ed in 1988 at the Canberra reunion - a meeting that became a rock-fast acquaintance. That continued with exchange of photographs and articles for twenty years. Hopefully, these exchanges were of great benefit to our historians. This exchange continued every weekend with phone calls between NSW and South Oz.
The same friendship soon included Liz and the result was the recording of history pieces which otherwise might have been lost forever to all radar folk.
So our thanks are due to Ed and Liz for a richness of information which could have been lost - But Ed being a true historian gathered every bit that he could verify.
