Condolences,Gerry, When "Coach Bilik" was named the head basketball coach at Springfield College...I was his first captain. That began years of winning. A great guy ,I remember his wise guidance and leadership. RIP

Ed was the basketball coach during my 4 years at SC. disappointing I didn't make the freshman team,I should have, but really enjoyed watching his teams play. And having a BB skills class with him was a treat. Deepest sympathy to family.

Dear Gerry & Darrin, Ed was a wonderful coach & friend. We had many good times together coaching teams. He really enjoyed teaching & instructing. We send our deepest sympathy to you.

Gerry, so sorry to hear of Ed´s passing. He was a coach and a friend to me. I was happy to play some golf and connect with him on the internet later in life. May he RIP.

Ed was my colleague at Springfield College for over 40 years. He was a kind person who shared his knowledge of basketball ball with anyone including my daughter. Ed invited Laurel to meet at the SC court, set up a video and then coached her shooting style while filming. Thanks to this, Laurel became the first female at East Longmeadow High School to score 1000 points. She was recruited by U Mass and is in a Hall of Fame for those accomplishments. Ed had this kind of joy and love for fine...
