Not sure what to say?

We have lost a man who overcame his physical trials and earned the respect of his peers and associates. I have lost a childhood friend who showed me how to overcome disability and live a full life. Bless his memory.

I have just learned of Ed's death. He set a fine example for all who knew him , and all who followed in his big foot steps. There will never be a more sincere friend to those who knew him.

Rest in peace, Ed. And thanks for helping so many of us when we were getting started, and and for setting an example of grace and class by your life.

Ed Connell will be missed by many. I was fortunate to work in the law firm in Clarksdale for many years. He was an excellent attorney and a strong person. My prayers are with Eva, Ted and their family.

Ed was a fine man and professor. I had the distinct privilege of being taught by him in the Ole Miss Law School (CLASS OF 1966). This dear man, in grand fashion, overcame physical hardship and taught me so much! God bless you as you adjust to his passing.
