I was fortunate to share an office with Eddie in 2013-2014 while working for the company he founded, Redline Engineering. At 94 he used to walk around the factory after coming in at 9.00 am and say good morning to everyone and then go to work on his pc with cadkey. We used to get motoring authors come in and interview him on his early track triumphs.
A humble man with never a bad word about anyone or anything. Vale Eddie Thomas.
