In Honor of Our Ed on September 23rd.
Four Year Anniversary of your Death.
We were truly blessed to have had you as long as we did. You taught us so very much. You taught me what real love is. It took us time to reach that level of unconditional love. I miss that.
You taught me how precious and delicate life is. Your strength, love and upbeat outlook have lead me through some very tough times. I truly appreciate everything I have and don't take anything for granted.
I will never forget this picture of you. You looked so happy and healthy.
A Huge Loss for All of us! God Bless You Ed. Until we meet again my Dear.
We Miss and Love You So very Much. xoxoxoxo

4 years today and the pain while easing is still acute. We all miss you my darling Son and always will. You would be proud of your Suzanne and how she is "soldiering" on. Not many men could be so lucky to have had the wife you did AND by the same token she was also lucky to have had you. The most lucky of all however, was your Mama. Rest in peace Dear Son and tell Grandma she is loved and missed as well. Mama & Papa

Your love, patience and gift of forgiving. Your love for life. I give thanks for that energy and strength you have passed onto me in moving forward as you always did with every new challenge. Each day is a new day and a gift not to be taken for granted.
My memories of you will always be with me. I Miss your big blue eyes and warm smile. That loving warm embrace. You'll never be forgotten my Love. Forever Missed.

You are particularly on my mind today my Dearest Son and feel the need to do this eulogy,
Ed, you were not only my baby, my teen ager, my son, one of my best friends but you are and were my hero. You went through so many years of pain and suffering that no one can imagine, your 2 brothers don't know how fortunate they were not to be afflicted. You never said "oh poor me, why me?" You were friends with everyone, you always had time to lend a helping hand or ear, especially to your Mom who was such a "doofus" with computer questions, no matter how busy you were YOU took the time with loving patience. It was you and Suzanne who took such loving care of Grandma when I could not THANK YOU!!! God in his love brought you Suzanne for your wife. How lucky you were even through trying times she was always at your side - thank you God!! I am beginning to ramble so will sign off with one last statement, Ed, you are and were MY SUNSHINE MY ONLY SUNSHINE WHO MADE EVERY DAY WHETHER GRAY OR BLUE BRIGHTER. Mama

It was a wonderful day when you were welcomed into this world and such a beautiful infant you were with your red curly hair (yes, it was red) and the cleft in your chin looked like someone had used a black marker (I had to clean with q tips, it was so deep). You are sooo missed our Darling Son. We are hoping that you are celebrating with Grandma and all of the other Angels.

Our Dearest Eddie ,
It is Thanksgiving Day and our 2nd without you. Again, I am Thankful that you are no longer having to suffer and have no quality of life. You were even as a youngster "full of life" and brought so much joy even when you were naughty (yes, you could be a stinker at times!), but still.... Not having you with us has left such a hole in the family dynamics which will never be replaced. Papa and I miss you terribly and always will.
Lovingly, Mama and Papa

I miss our heart felt talks, joking around laughing. Your love, pride and encouragement. You are always in my heart and thoughts. I'll make you proud just you watch.
We both will. I talk to you all the time. I feel you close by watching me.
I'm sorry I've been so distant to everyone this year. I'll try harder. Mom will be a long time healing from this. She talks to you a lot. She sometimes laughs out loud over something you did or something you said. Mom said she cracked you up many times too! You too were crazy together.
We miss being able to drop in and joke around with you.
It sucks losing you. I'm at a loss for words on that one.

One Year Ago Our Lives Changed Forever!
We Lost Our Beautiful Ed.
Our sons and I will have a candle night visual to Honor our Dear Sweet Ed. A wonderful Father, Loving son, husband and brother. A cherished friend. I started lighting candles on Friday 9/16/11. Like I did a year ago praying for a miracle. It was one year ago that day that Ed was admitted for his last time into Stanford Hospital. He had his stroke at approx. 2pm on 9/19. He left us in this world 9/23. Ed has always been in our thoughts and always in our hearts.
The pain is still very strong. Ed would have wanted us to Live, Love, Laugh and move forward. The truth be said.
It's a lot easier to say than to do at times. Ed is truly missed at all levels.
Ed we love you so much. God must have had plans for you to take you from us so suddenly. May God continue to Bless your soul. Miss You Sweetie.
Love Always, Your Loving Wife Suzanne and sons Eddie and Steve

You were taken too soon from me. I miss our pillow talk at night and in the morning. Miss your cute loving morning notes for me. Miss your precious smiling sunshine spirit around me. Miss your big blue eyes and warm beautifuI smile looking back at me. Miss your sense of humor and contagious laughter. God you made me laugh.
I'll love you forever sweetie. Miss you forever until we meet again.
I'm so glad we bumped into each other in this life.

In Honor of Ed and Sylvia. Special Angels brought to us from Heaven.
Couldn't stop thinking about you this week Ed.
Sylvia's funeral service was today. She passed away Sunday Morning. She was 83 yrs old.
It stirred up a great deal of feeling again. But, she's also in a better place with Jesus and you now. She's also out of pain.
I know your both catching up with one another now. Sylvia always had a great sense of humor like yourself. You'll both be missed. But, somehow it's comforting to know your both together now. Sylvia was such a God Send to us when the boys were younger and our work hours were excessive trying to get ahead. She brought something special to our home during those years.
Picking them up from school, getting them something to eat, comforting them, helping them with homework.
Having dinner ready and waiting for us when we returned home from work. She brought her love, support, wisdom and humor into our home. She left her foot prints on our souls Forever. Until we meet again. You'll both be missed!
Those were the good times. Precious Memories.
She was a great friend to all of us.
Rest in Peace both of you. God Bless you both.
Love Always, Suzanne XXOO

Daniel you are so right on...
Ed is missed so very very much.
He made me feel very special every single day with his little notes and smiling face. Ed was like a kid at heart. Always compassionate to others. Ed always had a very special fun loving light hearted way about him.
Yes, a zest for life. He would be golfing in this beautiful weather right now.
We all miss him very much. He was truly my better half. Everyone knows too!
Thanks Daniel for your beautiful words.
Love Always his wife Forever!

Oh Lord, 6 months without my Dear Sweet Ed is so very hard. I still feel half of my heart has been ripped out of my chest. It still hurts so very much. I pray it hurts less in time.
I hide it well amongst my family and co-workers.
But, I can't hide the feelings that I feel inside. It just hurts.
I know your family misses you so very much also.
I know how close you are with your mama, Eddie, Steve and your siblings.
The only peace that I feel inside. Is knowing that you were saved from further suffering my sweet baby. We all miss and love you so very much every minute of the day.
Weekends, vacations, birthdays, BBQs, holidays and any other event will not be the same without you there.
But, we will have you close in our hearts my sweet.
You'll always be with us in our warmest heart felt thoughts always.
I will always remember our times together. When my turn comes I hope we replay those wonderful close memories on vacation in Mexico and everywhere else we've been.
Love you Love you Sweetie xoxo Always Suzanne
Forever!!!

6 months without our precious Ed. Each day starts and ends with a visit with him. Knowing that our dearest son is no longer suffering brings comfort even though the question remains "why him?" A question that won't be answered in the here and now, maybe someday it will be answered. You are loved Ed every moment of every day.

It's just not the same without my Dear Sweet Ed. I think of Ed as soon as I wake up, during the day and before I go to sleep. It's almost 5 months now. I still cry without warning. I have no way of knowing when the flood gates will break. They just do. Even at work.
My heart will always have a hole left from his absence. You are truly missed my dear sweet Ed.
I know you are busy doing God's work now. I know your occasionally watching over us. I know you visit me, I feel your love at certain times. As if your right next to me.
I feel nothing but love then, now and always. In this life and the next baby. Thank you for giving me the strength sweetie. Between you and Jesus giving me the strength. I'm taking it one day at a time.
Each day brings its challenges and its blessings too. Soon I will move from our family home. But, without you there it's just a shell. I count my blessings daily. My memories of you will follow me where-ever I lay my head.
Ed I look at your picture on my desk at work and smile for the memories you gave me forever baby.
I feel nothing but Love. Just Love.
Lovingly Always, Your Wife Suzanne xo
