We were so sorry to hear of your Father's passing. He will be terribly missed as is your mother. Your parents, our parents (Al&Willie Dieumegard), and ALL the other couples belonging to the High School "Gang" taught us the importance of faith, marriage, family, and friendship. Anytime there was a Dieumegard event, I personally looked forward to seeing every member of the "High School Gang" because the love they shared with each other was admirable. Thank you for sharing your parents with us all these years! Your family is in our prayers for healing. Much Love, janet and dave little

We share our condolences with Ed's family. As kids growing up, and even now, as parents ourselves, what a lesson of honor and love he displayed in his friendship with our Dad and Mom, Caren and now, Italia.

True friendship like the one "The Gang" has shared all these years is a treasure, not just for themselves, but for all who were blessed to witness it. Ed's hugs were genuine and help us remember him as a big, gentle Teddy Bear.

Blessings to all and may your loving memories bring you comfort and hope.

Please accept my condolences on the passing of your Dad. Ed was always there with a kind word or encouragement. I remember when I first started out as a police officer (NYPD-retired) Ed offered this bit of advice: "Remember no matter what you do or see, be thankful for your parents, and how they raised you. And upon your return home give thanks that your own family is well and enjoy their company." I followed your Dad's advice and often reminded other officers of life's priorities. Your Parents were good friends to my parents(Al & Willie Dieumegard). They were good people. Your Dad will be sorely missed, but I and my wife,Debbie will be consoled by the many, pleasant memories of your Dad and your Mom, now united forever.

I am so sorry to hear about your dad. He was a wonderful man. I think of your mom and dad often. They were wonderful friends to my parents. We are very fortunate to have had all of you part of our lives.
