Mary, We were so sorry to hear of Ed's passing (in the Gonzaga newsletter.) You were such wonderful next door neighbors when we moved to MD all those years ago. Ed was a gentle, loving, and generous man. May he rest in peace with the Lord. Liz and Palmer Orlandi

To Mary and all the Floods:
Ed was a Knight in Shining Armor to his family, friends, and others. A gentle, loving man. No wonder Jesus has called Ed to sit at His round table. He will be missed. So sad for all of us. Love always.
