To Suzanne,Stephen,Richard and Bonnie and Cousin Siblings: We are
very sad to learn of the passing of
our first cousin Eddie. These are most difficult hours. With very sincere regrets, we just returned from a week in Maine and were out
of range for cellphones/computers.
Even Boston newspapers were scarce. We are sorry that we could
not attend the wake and funeral and
personally extend our respects to
Eddie and the family. PEACE AND
PRAYERS. Tom and Mary Casey
Billerica, Mass.

My thoughts and prayers are with Chris deMont (Ed's son), whom I love deeply. I send prayers, blessings and comfort to Chris and his family at this time. I always remember Chris's dad joking around on the phone with me - he always had a kind word. He had such a humorous and unconventional outlook on life. I also remember how nice he was to my son Cole. When I told Cole the Chris's dad had passed, he just said, "No" and his eyes filled up with tears. Chris and Cole are very close and Cole lost his father 2 years ago - so I know Cole is sad for Chris.
