Not sure what to say?

I was thinking of Ed today and was happy to find a place where I could leave a message. Ed was our boss when AIM Funds bought our San Francisco-based GT Global and I had lots of interaction with him at Greenway Plaza and from our SF base. He was just a lovely man; a warm, sparkling human presence in the business world. He was always fair, civil, and respectful, and I greatly enjoyed every opportunity to interact with him. I had heard that he had passed but wasn't aware of the full scope of...

I offer my belated condolences upon learning of your loss. May your pain be burnished with the many exceptional memories you carry of this great man.

Yes I used to work for Edgar at CII in london as his london secretary. He was the most understanding boss as I was a young girl living in London he made me work hard. Have photos. So sad to get the news. He will always be remembered as my first boss.

Dear Stephanie and Bryn, I send you much love and my prayers. Ed was a very special person and I was lucky to experience his many kindnesses.

Dear Larsen Family,

As a 2006 graduate of the University of Houston's Creative Writing Program, I am deeply indebted to Mr. Larsen for his brilliant, steadfast stewardship of Inprint's Endowment of which I was a direct and grateful beneficiary. My deepest sympathies go out to Mr. Larsen family and his many friends.

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Mr Edgar. My mom is a resident at Autumn Leaves of Meyerland and we have fond memories of Ed. He often walked around the facility with us or would come and sit with me and my mom. He was always kind and gentle. We will miss him dearly but we know that he is at peace. Our prayers are with the family.
Sincerely,
Denise Moran Lee and the family of Claudia Moran
Andrew, Kathleen and Claire

Sincerest condolences to Stephanie and Bryn and all of Ed's family and friends. I joined Inprint's board in 1996 and still fondly recall Ed's reports on Inprint's endowment fund (complete with witty cartoons and warm smile). His dedicated and expert management of the endowment fund was key to Inprint's ability to award (and continue awarding!) significant fellowships to aspiring young writers at the U of H's graduate program in Creative Writing. Ed's generous support, capable leadership...
