I was saddened to hear about Ed. Although it's been a long time since I saw him, I've known him for years and worked with his wife, Molly. I enjoyed hearing from Ed and his doings in his Christmas letters. I'm attaching a photo Ed sent to me from one of his cruises. Obviously, a happy time. My heart goes out to his family.

I will always remember all the Sundays we spent at the Charger games and all the fun we had together. So glad you found someone after Molly passed. I will miss you. Carol Mahon
