I will remember Ed Mcnamara as being a very helpful and fine gentleman. Growing up in West Castleton, I often helped my father, Ed Doran, with carpentry projects at the Mcnamara's just down the road. I admit I was a terrible carpenter's apprentice and would often get side-tracked by reading the books and magazines that were located throughout their house. Ed and my sister Susan (Ed's second wife) graciously opened their house in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, to care for my ill mother, who required dialysis weekly. I remember seeing Ed dressed in his blue security outfit(volunteer at the court) looking very official, on my vacation years ago. Ed enjoyed serving the town of Castleton in the position of chair of the board of selectmen. Ed was a friendly conversationalist. Prayers and kind thoughts to his wonderful family.
