With heavy hearts, we must pass on the news of the
death of long time Museum Member Ed Baker. For more than 25
years Ed was a very important piece of McChord and its history
wearing many hats at the Museum. Born in the Territory of
Hawaii, Ed worked at many aircraft company's, retiring in the
mid 80's from the Boeing Company.
From the Tower, to the Gallery to the his beloved C-47, Ed has
left his mark around the museum, being a important driving
force in many Museum projects.
Ed is survived by his son William Franco, sister Emma, plus
several sisters and brothers
Often known as "Mr. McChord Air Museum" Ed will certainly be
long remembered for his many years of service in support of
the Museum.
