I am so sorry that I will be unable to make the funeral service. It was a privilege to have been a part of Ed's life and a pleasure speaking to you so many times on the phone, Joe, and getting to know you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Please know I am still here if you ever need to talk.

Eddie's beat was in my grandmother's neighborhood and he would stop in to see her. He brought her milkshakes because she wasn't eating.He was godmother to my daughter, Donna. The kids all loved him because he played with them.So sorry about your loss. Barb Kramer (Lee's ex-wife), Lady Lake, Florida

Really sorry to get this news. Ed was a big part of the Keller family. Sundays at the Keller house, after dinner playing poker with Pop Keller, Pete McCullion, Sos, Johnny Keller and Ed. Ed would drive Mrs. Keller to Lankenau Hospital when John was in for an extensive stay. Ed was broken up when John passed, they were great friends. Ed was always over the Sos's when we had party's. Our daughter Jen was Red's and our son John was hotdog. Joe, Lee, Midge and all the Connerton's, our condolences and prayers. He was really a GOOD man. Bernadette and John Sosinavage.
