To Ed's Family-
We recently heard of the passing of Ed. We are so sorry and extend our deepest sympathy to all his family. We lived next door to Ed on County Route 41A several years ago. We enjoyed many fun times with Ed.It was a privilege to be a neighbor of his. We sold our home there and moved to Florida about four years ago. We wished we had known that Ed was in Florida also.

To the Family ,I am so sorry to hear of Ed's passing. He was great teacher and friend and I enjoy going fishing with him a few times. Because of his teaching my family and I had a very comfortable life after I graduated. He was tough but fair in his way of teaching.
