Dear Mrs. O, I remember the days of always being at your house after school and on the weekends. Grandma and you were inside while Eddie was always working on a race car in the garage. Ed and I spent our teen years together but then lost touch. I am so very sorry for your loss! Ed had a heart of gold and always wanted to have a good time. The memories I have of him I will truly cherish. Ed will always be #1 in so many lives he touched.
