Not sure what to say?

He was the most brilliant star in a galaxy of light. He was kind and generous and won an important case on defamation against an attorney speaking about his client. I will never forget your radiance. My wife and three children will learn more about you this holiday season. RIP Don Bernhardt

I think of Ed often, year after year, and I miss his friendship. What a wonderful person he was, so brilliant and so giving with such humility. No one like him. Love to his husband, Tom.

Hard to believe it's been five years since we lost Ed. I think of him often, such a fine man, such heart and soul. Love to all his loved ones, Kathleen

Our deepest sympathies to Tom and to everyone else in the Davis family. Ed was, quite simply, one of my favorite people, and I know we will all miss him deeply.

A bright light and gentle soul has left the earth.

Kind, smart and dryly funny, Ed was a good friend who never lost the ability to surprise me with his sly wit and his low-key delivery. I still find it hard to believe that I'll never see him again, and my heart goes out to his husband,his mother and the rest of his family. His passing diminishes the world.

I am very sorry to hear of Eds sudden passing. My deepest sympathy to his family and friends.
I hope the good memories will guide you through this difficult time.

My deepest condolences to his husband, his mother and the rest of his family. Ed and I met through John Jay Pre-Law Institute and I was struck within a few seconds how caring he was. He was an amazing person who gave back to the community every way he could and who was there for me when the Director of the Pre-Law Institute passed. May he rest in peace, may his family find comfort in the memories and amazing legacy he has left in the community. Thank you Ed for everything you did.

I met Ed about 13 years ago through my partner Kathleen. Although I did not spend much time with him to get to know him well, it only took 5 minutes in his presence to know he was a rare and truly special person. My deepest condolences to Tom and Ed's family.
