Dear Elaine, Linda, Eddie,Joannie,Jeannie and Richard, When I heard the news that Big Eddie passed away it brought on a lot of emotion both happy and sad. He was a good man who tended to his most prized possessions "his family". He will be sorely missed. May your memories be a source of comfort to you at this most difficult time. With lots of love, always, Jackie

Big Ed,
I will forever miss your beautiful face and your wit. You made me laugh but never made me cry until you left us. I am sure you were able to here all of us sharing our "Elaine and Ed" stories at your bedside. They were full of joy and happiness. Thank you for loving me, and I know you did. I love you Big Ed, please rest in peace. Be sure that we will all take care of your Elaine. Love you, Sheila
