Wow, this was truly something unexpected. Whenever I was around Edmund he would make me laugh to the point of tears and at the same time run (smile). I will always remember him as being a "good man" with a heart of gold. To John: you hang in there. I know this is very hard to lose your left hand but he is right by your side as always.

To Brian, Erika and Family

Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.

May you find comfort in knowing that earth has no sorrow that Heaven can't heal. We love you.

I RESPECT THE WAY YOU DIDN'T SUGAR-COAT YOUR WORDS WITH ME BUT ALWAYS MADE ME FEEL SPECIAL TO YOU. YOU HAD THE MOST GIVING HEART OF ANYONE THAT I HAVE EVER MET AND THE TRUE GIFT THAT YOU GAVE ME OUT THE MANY GIFTS THAT YOU GAVE, IS TO MINDFUL OF HELPING OTHERS LIKE YOU DID FOR ME. YOUR LEGACY OF LOVE, GENEROSITY,AND KINDNESS WILL NEVER DIE.

Vita and John,

I was very saddened to hear of the sudden loss of cousin Edmund. My heartfelt prayers and thoughts are with you. The longevity of life is unpredictable however the quality of life and the impact one can have is under our control. Edmund impacted many lives in many different ways and we should be thankful that we had an opportunity to have him touch our lives. Right this moment, Edmund is looking down and smiling and knows he will be with us always.

Edmund will always live in our hearts and may God provide each of us with strength and support during this difficult time. We truly will miss him.

Love Cousin,
Carolyn, Tamerria, Michael

Our tears here are selfished because we want our loved ones here to hold and have "one last minute with", but there's no better place you could ever imaging than eternity in HEAVEN.

To Vita and John,
It was fortunate that you could be their for Tommy to the end. I'm sure it was hard, but it was truly a blessing, because he would have not wanted it any other way. You can rest assured that he is much better off. He did not leave this world alone. I'm so glad that my family got to experience Tommy. He surely will be missed by many. We all know that he is in Heaven. He was chosen.
