Dear Family
Several years ago when I worked at Swett's restaurant your dad would come in for lunch. He and I would share stories about the military (his stories were much more interesting than mine). The both of us were "AIRBORNE" so we had a few things in common. I will always cherish those memories. He was a great man and he will surely be missed by many. May God continue to bless your family. With Love

One morning I sat in my office at TSU, A be-hatted and be-smiling Ed was delivering a note to me from Emma. I was suddenly happy, for no reason but that smile, and it lasted all day. He delivered me reams of all-day smiles over the years. Bless Ed for all the happiness he gave me and everyone else.
