Not sure what to say?

So many good memories of Ed, every time I needed parts he would say come in and have a glass of wine with me then go see if you can find what you need! He knew where everything was and always had a story to tell!

Uncle Ed you will forever be missed. It feels like the end of an era. Rest in peace.

I remember walking through the woods behind my Wyoming Street home as a child and looking at all the old cars from the 30s and up with trees growing through them.
I wish my cousins much sympathy.

Who can forget "Uncle Bush". To they eye it seemed he had very little. But he had such an abundance to give from his heart! Honored to have been his friend.

The best yard I'n torr for the old items ! Great memories of dealing with Ed ! Always friendly fun day on the hill!!!!

Memories as a little girl, this is yet another great loss for our family. Remembering "Lucky", Ed whistling as we sat on the hill waiting for him to ask us to sit with him, I can still smell that old house and hear the laughter from everyone gathered, children were his greatest joy as cookies or even money a simple coin or dollar bill were given... my Dad looked after him so much, loved helping out and simply looked up to him as a father... Uncle Ed your in all our hearts forever... I will...

My heart goes out to the family. I have not seen Ed for many years but always seem to remember stories about him when talking about old times. I have fond memories of a man who always treated me fairly & honestly. I first met Ed in 1966 and he was always the first one I would call on if I needed an auto part. He would always invite me in for a nip as he called it and shoot to the breeze before walking down to get whatever I needed. Rest in peace my old friend!

R.I.P. Uncle Ed..I will never forget when i lived across the street from you and your whistling. You just seemed to not have a care in a world and a smile on your face every time i saw you. I always emjoyed listening to your stories and running through the junkyard when i was a kid as my father looked for car parts.

My thoughts and prayers to Ed's family in his passing, yet always cherish the many many funny stories he always shared to bring a smile. I know my Dad and I will never forget him, and he will live on within our hearts. My dad worked for years with Ed in the junkyard and I always went to visit with my dad on Saturdays. We are truly blessed to have known Ed and I will always be thankful for everything he had done for my dad...Ed will definitely be missed.
