Still missing you Ed and Mary Ann. My wife Marlene has joined you guys in heaven as of May 13, 2022. Rest In Peace! We all had so much fun together back in those days, I was born in 1933 just like Ed was. Mark, Laura and Kim, know that your mom and dad, were the greatest people, and I'm certain they are watching over you from their place in heaven.

Had the privilege to work with Eddie at the Cuyahoga County Board of Health for a number of years. He helped me get my start in the public health field.

Remembering both Ed and Mary Ann, 1 year later, I can hear his voice in my mind and Mary Ann's laughter as if it were yesterday. They will never be forgotten. The best friends I ever had to this day!!!

Laura and Mark, I am so sorry to hear of your mom and dad both passing. You both may or may not remember me, but my wife and I were very close to your parents until we moved to Maryland in the late 60's. Eddie and I sold the Edsel Automobiles together and played ball together for many years. I remember the two of you very well and have many memories of your parents that I will always cherish. God Bless you both and know we will always remember them and you.

Our deepest sympathy especially to Mark, Laura & Kim with the death of their dad. Eddie was one of the kindest, gentlest, fun-loving person we knew. Some of our fondest memories of him & Mary Ann were at family gatherings when Mary Ann would laugh & tell us stories & Eddie would smile. Now Eddie is re-united with Mary Ann for all eternity. May you be comforted knowing that your mom & dad loved you beyond measure! Jack & Deena LaVigne

I love you
