Ed Cole’s tribute to Larry Wagner in EDFA magazine
It is my pleasure and privilege to recognize one of the founders of what EDFAS has been and has become. Lawrence C. Wagner, FASM, will be leaving the EDFA Editorial Board with this issue, and the rest of the board thought his contributions should be celebrated. Larry has been a member of the EDFA board since its inception in 1998, but he has meant so much more to EDFAS and to EDFA magazine. Nominations Sought for EDFAS Board.
