To my father I am thankful for the wonderful last few years we shared. You were always there to help me and all I needed was to ask. Though showing affection was not done easily in our family, I could always see the love you had for the family and grandchildren through the fun loving play of fishing, blow-darts and lending a helping hand with house chores, even without asking.

Your generiosity toward everyone you encountered astonished me. Though we often saw things in different views, you helped everyone you came in contact with not expecting anything in return. Your selfless acts of kindness have earned your wings early. Though we shed tears of hurt and sorrow, they are also tears of love and admiration.

I will celebrate your memory through living life to the fullest. Sharing laughter with your grandson and reminding him often of just how much love you had and have for him.

God bless you and keep you safe. Until we are all together again. I love you dad.

I worked with Ed for many years at Accurate Forming in Hamburg, NJ. I was the Plant Manager then in the 70's and enjoyed having Ed work for us. On a personal note, he did me some favors which I will never forget. God rest his sole in peace.

I am going to gratefully miss my uncle. I just want him to know that I do talk to him even know he is dead. I will miss everything we did together. Even know I barely ever got to see him I still think of him and love him...

Here is a letter to him that I wrote and I want people to know how close I was to him.

I am very sad that you died and that I didn't get to say goodbye to you before you did. I do want you to know that I am still going to miss you the same even know I can talk to you on my own time and you will always be with me no matter what happens to me. I even talk to you while I am in school... I do miss you and I always will now... I talk to you every morning and night now. I hope you are happy where you are now.

I will miss my Uncle Eddy JR. I know he is in a better place than he was but I will not be able to see him till I get up there. I just think about how he is probably drinking a beer chasing all the women... I love all my family. I know that my family will not be the same without him. I just hope everybody in the family understands that I am doing ok right now. I know I am young still and it isn't easy for a young kid to loose a family member that they were close to. Well little kids it's not easy but you will get over it soon or latter. It happened on Wednesday November 21st and I am still having a tough time getting through this. I cry a lot but I cry when I am alone...

LOVE YOUR NIECE

Our sincere condolences to the family.

I’ll always remember Ed and how quickly that little bugger could role them cigarettes. I could never keep up with him no matter how much I tried.

I’ll always remember his quirky sense of humor and his willingness to help another in need. He had a huge heart for helping others. I’ll remember his unique voice.

He has walked through the hearts of many and is now resting with our Lord.

I will sincerely miss you Ed. You were a good and kind friend to me and a wonderful Uncle to Samantha. You will always be kept alive in our hearts.

The world was cheated the day we lost you. You will be missed.

Rest In Peace my friend.
