To the Dee family:
Our heartfelt condolences go out to your entire family. As you know,

The Dee family has my deepest condolences. Losing a loved one is so difficult. I love Smarties to this day. What a great loss and a legacy! May you find it consoling that the God that gives us "everlasting comfort and good hope" (2 Thess. 2:16) has Edward in His memory now and forever.

Although we never met Edward, we have admired him through our forty year friendship with Edward's son, Joel Dee. Through Joel we learned much about Edward and Anita's remarkable lives.

During the late 80s early 90s The galloping Hill cruisers a local car club in Union was graciously supplied cartons of Smarties to be passed out to spectators and children at car shows and parades. It was my honor to have a wonderful rapport with the company. Thank you mr. Dee

I met Mr. Dee when I was 18 yrs old, and feel very lucky to have known him. He was always kind, generous, and respectful to me. He was an iconic man. RIP Mr. Dee, you will be missed by many
