Ed was a father figure to me when I needed it the most. I have thought of him fondly over the years. He gave me encouragement and believed in me. I was lucky to have him in my life! Peace be with you!

I worked for Ed for several years. His gruff voice scared me to death at first, but I soon learned he was a big teddy bear at heart. I loved working with him and think of him often. My condolences to the family.
