Your spirit lives on every time I listen to a Skynyrd song. I truly miss your Facebook posts and the beautiful pictures of your trips with the pups on the boat. Rock and Roll heaven gained a musician and the heavens gained a star. Rest in peace Ed.....

Awesome guitarist, real, kind, humble human being. Two of my favorite Skynyrd songs, Whiskey Rock-a-Roller & Sweet Home Alabama, Ed was a big part of. Thanks for the great music & beautiful memories. Rock on Ed!

Ed, you influenced me with SAC, your first band, and later your compositions with Lynyrd Skynyrd. Glendale is where our band played too. You were a gifted songwriter/guitarist and the world is missing you and your many talents. I had to tell you, Mr Ed King, thank you for all you gave usalways & forever rock on!
