cardiac complications. He is survived by his only child, Charles Andrew

manually directing satellites from space in New Boston NH in the early 60's. He
was then stationed at NASA in Houston, TX where he continued his career in
satellite observations. Afterward, he was recruited by various private
aerospace firms, such as General Electric and Computer Sciences, as a
commercial marketer for the United States Department of Defense during which
time he became a Center Director of what would become space imagery marketing
for various Government entities.
