Memories of Ed speaking in 2002 and 2003. I also have some audio from his gospel message from a Festival of Lights. Ed was a great man, I loved his enthusiasm for sharing the gospel. He will certainly be missed.

Lorna and family, yet another year has passed, but still have wonderful memories of Ed´s life as pastor and friend at Calvary Church. Happy we had a change to chat a couple of times this past year. Blessings again for peace and love during this Christmas season!
