Dear family,
I wish to give the family my condolences for the lost of de Russell Luke Lutz.
I live in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, SPAIN,
where he spent some years in the sixties as engineer working for NASA in the Mercury project.
Space radio station located at Maspalomas, Gran Canaria was assigned for tracking spacecraft
In the Gemini, Mercury and Apollo programs.
This station still remains, working with meteo and surveillance satellites.
I never met Russell.
During this years in Las Palmas, he owned and drove a sport British car that for the luck of destiny
ended in my own hands. The car was on scrapyard after a little accident. That`s was I knew
about Russel. The car came with all documents within.
I feel so sorry not to have the chance of talking him about this oldies.
Since I have internet at home, I have been trying to search about Russell, with no success, until now.
The car was restored and works fine every weekend that I cross the island remembering those fashion
days. I own all the documents and pictures from the past about the car.
Sincerely,
