Pacific Raceways flagman starter Fast Eddie passes

FYI to all NW drag racers who knew "Fast Eddie."

He was the Pacific Raceways flagman starter in the "pre Christmas Tree" days and a good one. Also a really good guy.

A hard core drag racing and rod run fan his entire life.

Eddie passed away (he was 77) in April and there will be a memorial and "Celebration of Life" this Sat. June 5th at 11:30 AM in Federal Way, Wa.

The address is:

Brooklake Church
629 S. 356th
Federal Way Wa.
(corner of Hwy 99 [Pacific Hwy S.] and S. 356th)
