It was only recently that I learned of the passing of my friend Ed. He was a gentlemen. Enjoyed many golf games and dog shows. Sometimes hand in hand. In fact the last time I saw Ed we enjoyed a game of golf as he was in treatment for his cancer. His spirits never faltered. Always the optimist. Carole, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May all of Ed's golf holes be birdies from this point on. God bless.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Carole and family. Ed was a wonderful gentle man. I have fond memories of camping and golfing with you both. May he Rest In Peace. And may God bless you at this most difficult time.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I have such fun memories of Eddie when he stayed at mom and dad's house for junior hockey for 3 years and all the fun we had at Windermere afterwards. The "hockey boys" were like big brothers for my siblings and I. Eddie will be dearly missed!

Best Wishes for the Dyck family. It is amazing how in life we travel the same road with a person that we become very close to, then a fork in the road takes us in different directions. Yet every now & then something reminds you of that person & we smile! I am remembering so many of the great times I shared with the Dycker & I am smiling! Best to All.

Carole and Family,
This comes to express my sincere condolences on the passing of Ed. Though its been a while I had the pleasure of his acquaintance as a member of the Calgary Flames Alumni particpating in some fun events together. We would also find time to occasinally share a coffee.
My thoughts are with you during this very difficult time.
Sincerely,
Rick Skaggs
