To Karen and Family --
I know how difficult this time is for all of you and I hope that peace will find its way into your hearts to ease the pain. Although I never met your Dad, I know how wonderful his daughter is and therefore how special he must have been. Please know that your friends are near, so reach out when you need us.

Ed, in the short time we've know each other, we became the best of friends. I still have the postcard you sent of your new home and will keep it hanging in my kitchen. You always said that I was the best Marine you ever met and I'd respond; "you're not bad for an Army guy either" and we'd laugh. I'd call you LT. and you'd quickly correct me "I was a Captain, Jerry". I'll miss your visits to Lowell and our closeness as not only Veterans, but best of friends. You'll always be in my heart and prayers.
"Semper Fidelis"

To the family: I do not know you or this wonderful man. I'm 9yrs younger and would like to thank the family for their selflessness for this Vet to serve in Vietnam. I would like to salute Edward and say TY Edward, may you find peace. A grateful Boston woman.
