Hi,
I am a counselor at the College of Southern Nevada and was blessed to be here when Ed taught classes for CSN. I knew him through committees, mutual friends and through the students that took his classes.
The students adored him and told new students to take Ed Eschner’s class because he would treat you fair. He opened up many a student’s life to new information and encouraged some to follow in his career footsteps. I believe Ed always had full classes and retained most of his students throughout the semester. CSN lost a great instructor when he left. Students were still asking for him semesters after he had left CSN.
Ed was always a fair and open individual that spoke honestly and plainly. On committees, he was the intellectual, often bringing up ideas that no one else had considered. He was blunt and to the point and for those of us that admire those traits, he was the guy in the white hat.
I guess the good do die young, because this was very unfair.
My prayers and thoughts go to the family and friends of this great man. He was missed when he left and now he is truly missed.
Sincerely,
Dr. N.J. Pettit
