He will forever be in our hearts. My hugs, thoughts and prayers go out to your family. XO

So sad to hear about Ed. He was a great husband and father and so proud of his boys! So sorry Doreen, Justin and Rylie.

My heartfelt condolences to you, Doreen, Ryley and Justin. I will always have fond memories of Ed. His laugh, him and Chris teaching me how to play cards and checkers. Riding in his Javelin out to Uncle Pete's...fast. He was a quintessential Alberta man, smart, strong, full of life and with a deep love for family. I wish we'd stayed closer over the years, but distance is a hard obstacle. Gone too soon...I will miss him always.

Doreen, Justin and Ryley. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. So many memories come back of times we spent with all of you. Good friends like Ed are hard to find. We will treasure him forever.

Doreen, Justin and Ryley, I had the pleasure of working together and becoming friends with Ed over the past 25 years. A positive minded, practical and exceptionally capable member of our team. Always more than willing to lend a hand or offer some sound advice when asked. He was well respected, and a very easy guy to like. He spoke of his family often and with pride. Ed will really be missed, and fondly remembered by his many friends at United.
