There is no other way to describe Ed other than a wonderful man, caring, compassionate and with an unwavering commitment to help his fellow man on earth. I had the privilege of working with him for 15 years in his law office and treasure the memories of those happy times. A light has diminished from this world and he will be truly missed.
