An Old Irish Blessing

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

We wanted to write and tell you again how sorry we are for your loss. Eddie, will be truly missed by everyone who knew him no matter where they crossed his path in life. Throughout the years, we have valued the times we were able to get together to play cards and have lots of laughs. Eddie, always enjoyed friendly competion at the card table. Memories of our times together regardless of where we where or what we were doing will be forever held dear to us. We will always keep Eddie's memories held deeply within our hearts, and seeing how much love was in your family it will always remind us how life should be lived.

With love and sympathy,

Peg & Conner, your loss is my shock.
I first met Ed when he started with the MDC, knew him well, spent many times with him during work. Ed had the gift to make you smile with his stories and reflections on life. We had a falling out years ago, but we buried the hatchet (in a good place), he was to good to not be a friend. I'll miss you Ed, next hot dog at Sullivan's will have your name on it. If you can read this say hi to Tommy for me.

Although it has been many years since I have seen Ed, his image is still so vivid in my mind. He had such a presence when he walked into a room, his stature, his broad smile, his booming voice and personality, the twinkle in his eyes. All of these will be in my memory for all time. He will be missed by all whose lives he has touched.
My prayers are with his family.

Dear Peg, Conor and the Mogan family, so many happy memories of our "early" years together - Ed was your biggest fan, and so proud of both of you. He always made us laugh - I could count on that whenever I called the house to chat!

I am praying for you all at this extremely difficult time.

I will see you when I come home.

With much love,

Ellen

My memories, like all the others posted here, are of good times: playing ball at Wheatland Ave., the little store, picking up pieces of coal from the railroad tracks, learning to swim in Lake Winnepesaukee, catching frogs in Waverly Oakes, laughs around the table at W. 2d Street, all good stuff.
Thanks Peggy and thanks Connor for taking good care of Ed.
