I'll always remember Saturday movie nights Ed, David,john and Tom would get together and have dinner, always surf and turf, Ed loved it and so did we! Wittiling away the evening laughing away the hours enjoying life. That was Ed!! We will miss him our hearts are saddened but some how Ed would have figured out a way to make things alright,and I'm sure he's working on that right now!

I dont know where to start. Our family has known Ed, we called him Tom, for 30-35 years. We respected and honored him dearly. He was always helpful and generous to our whole family and extended family. We had so much love for him. He was always a help to my parents who adored him like a son. He was always around on the holidays and we were the better for it. He was also loved by our children who looked up to him like a Dad. I had the privilege to work for Tom at Patriot for 4 years. He was a great and respectful boss and I felt grateful for him during that time. I used to watch Bruins hockey games with him at my brother's house whenever the games were on and I loved the chance to share quality time with him. We all were grateful to know him and love him. We were all close to him and loved him dearly for all these years. I'm sure I could go on for hours about him and we will miss him so very much. I dont know how life will be without him. I know her family will miss him so much and deserve all the credit for making the wonderful man he is and was, but I'm just going to be a little selfish and say he's the best man he could be and shared himself with us all and we will miss him to the moon and back!Love always, Sue
