Our prayers are with you in your time of bereavement. We will certainly miss Ed. He was a great asset to Delta Foundation and MACE. Most of the time he would visit Greenville, MS, he would stop by just to say hello.
Sincerely, Spencer Nash, President & CEO and its Board of Directors and staff)

Ed's successful exploits in the Civil and Votings Rights movements are legendary…and those soldiers of truth who walked, stood, and traversed the barriers along side him will never let his achievements be forgotten, indeed all of us currently benefit from his lifelong, trans-continental and global, human rights advocacy.
Ed was our friend. Valerie and I will cherish the memories of the wonderful gatherings between our families, the superb meals, the laughter and the thoughtful and...
