Guy Etheridge Has Died

Man faces charges in crash that killed 2, Orlando Sentinel

“Passers-by got all of the occupants out except the driver of the GMC, Guy John Etheridge, 43, of Merritt Island, who died at the scene.”

Reader note: Keith – I don’t know if you knew Guy Etheridge from KSC, but he was tragically killed in a car accident this weekend when he was hit by a drunk driver.

His wife and one daughter were also involved in the accident but are unhurt physically. There was a fourth passenger, Samantha Leveilee, a friend of Guy’s daughter, who was also killed. Guy was a long time friend in life sciences, who provided functional program management for biological sciences, integrating research and development activities and operations of the Kennedy Space Center’s Space Life Sciences Laboratory. He touched many lives in and outside of NASA. He was originally from Terre Haute Indiana, and was an alumni of Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, in which he just spoke to a group of young engineers this past June in the “Operation Catapult” summer education program.
