Does anyone know the names of the two suit technicians who accompanied Neil Armstrong and David Scott from the Ready Room at Pad 16 to the white room at Pad 19?

Mr. Beeson with Armstrong and Mr. Schmitt with Scott. Beeson has passed and Joe lives in the Houston area.

Thanks, I have seen the name Jim Garrepy on some NASA pics taken during the Gemini VIII suiting process at the Pad 16 Ready Room. He was working with Armstrong. Did he remain at Pad 16?
