Rick 67 #1 September 19, 2013 My daughter in law's Grandfather was a California jumper. (Had to be around 30 years ago) His name was Edmond Gomez. She asked me to see if anyone on here remembers him. Any pics or stories would be greatly appreciated.You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick 67 #4 September 23, 2013 Ok Edmund jumped at Perris and Elsinore from 1970 til the early 80's I am working on getting a photo of him. Looks like his daughter and some other family members are going to come to Z-Hills in a few months to make tandem jumps to honor his memoryYou can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!

airtwardo 7 #5 September 24, 2013 I believe I may have known him...I jumped a LOT at Elsinore in the early 80's, some at Perris but more @ 'snore! My logs are sketchy at best from those daze, but if it's who I think it is...we may have been on a few smaller demos together back then as well. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick 67 #6 September 24, 2013 Very cool I should have a photo by this weekend. The family is interested in his jumping history and are looking for any stories from "back in the day". They say he was pretty active for a while. They are looking to see if they can find any old log books.You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
