Dear DeJesus Family
Very sorry to hear of your loss. I remember Edmund as a hard working, quiet guy who was always patient with us, regardless of how much noise Steve, myself and others were making in the basement. May he rest in peace.

To Ed and all his family - I have nothing but fond memoires of your Dad Ed. He was a wonderul person. We have been best friends since High School and here we lose our fathers almost one month to the day from each other. I am sure your Dad and my Dad are catching up right now. You all are in the prayers of my family and me. May the Good Lord comfort you all in your grief as he comforted us last month. -Joe Ricci
