Dear Patricia, Kathleen, and family,
Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Your father was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who were blessed to know him. My mother Betty, Ed's sister, has told us what a generous, caring and deeply religious man your father was as evidenced through the many hours of volunteer service he gave to his parish and community. We hope you will be comforted in knowing that his influence will live on through his family and through all those whose lives he touched.
Sincerely, Cathy Rabroker Johnson and Family
