I can't believe Ed has been gone so long. Time flies by but family stays in our hearts. The loss of each family member is like a candle flame extinguished forever but the candle remains with the spirit of that person inside. Sorry to all the Hadden's that your hearts are still heavy but look up and see him in the clouds and be joyful.

To the enitre Hadden Family. My deepest sympathy goes out to you. Ed will surely be missed. When I worked at Beman Hardware, Ed would visit me and talk about his car, camper, stocks and many other topics. I really enjoyed the socialization with him. My prayers will be with you in this sorrowful time.
