Ed was such a character in Sherman when I had a store there and I always loved when he came in. Sometimes just for a stroll around and sometimes for me to tie his shoes!!!! He always had some sort of comment!!! Some of the time it was R rated!!! I've missed him since I closed the store and he moved to Westfield. Rest in peace, Ed.
