I was Edwin's supervisor at Hatch Nuclear Plant and worked with him later at the NRC. He was a good guy and I shall miss him. Condolences to his family.

My heartfelt prayers to the Lea family. Edwin was a fraternity brother, a good friend, and a coworker. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience; but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. Edwin will be sorely missed
