I just found out about Ed passing today Dec. 11, 2008. I'm sorry for your loss. I knew Ed through hanging out with Greg and Anell for many years. I would always get a kick out of Ed when I'd see him.

It would have been nice to see him one more time!

God bless you all!

Hearing of Ed's passing brought to mind many memories. I met Ed the summer of 8th grade, my first crush, a crush that lasted til I was twenty. He was a special friend, a big brother and my mom's favorite of all my friends. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I remember Ed from many years ago and met him through his brother Gregg and sister Anelle. What I remember most is the constant laughter and fun that all brothers and sisters always seemed to have. Ed had a great sense of humor and always had family first. After reading the entries within, I can see that Ed never lost that love of family and friends and am sure he will be sorely missed by all. Our prayers are with the entire family.

I do not know where to begin. Ed was alot more than a friend to my family he was a member of my family especially to Dennis and our sons, Nathan and Robert. He encourged Nate's love of music and helped Robert with his computer(s)! He will be sorely missed by us all and never ever forgotten. Margie you are in our hearts and prayers. We love you both dearly.

Ed was one of my best friends for many many years. I first met Ed when he started coming around the house to see my older sister Michele and this goes back to 8th grade, maybe 9th grade, so as you can see I knew him many years.

He was my Best Man in my wedding, we fished together, played cards together and we even worked together for about three years. I can remember sitting for hrs drinking coffee and playing chess. The guy was just a fun person to be around. He will be missed by many.

My thoughts go out to the family you've left behind, rest well my friend and rest in peace.

And He will raise you up on Eagle’s wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palms of his hands.

Ed was a dear friend to my family. My mother Mary Benadum treated him like one of her own children. He was my brother Mike's best man in his wedding. My prayers go out to his family. Marlane Benadum -Foor
