My Dearest Husband Eddie, It has been 11 weeks and I miss "The Love Of My Life" My Soul Mate and My Best Friend. Your Forever Loving Jan

My memory of Ed is from the time we were all young. Jan, you two were truly soulmates, and I must admit that I was a little jealous that you had found such a kind, funny, wonderful guy and hoped that one day I would find my "Ed". God is good and we both were able to share many happy years with our dear men. Now we walk alone, but please believe that Ed will always be with you, just as I believe that Drew is still with me. All my love, Pat

So sorry for your loss. He was such a nice guy. May you find comfort in your memories.

Kathy & Arthur Mierisch

Uncle Ed will always be alive in our hearts. He had such a zest for life and he cared so much for others and showed it by his actions. We miss him but know, that when we see him again, he will be full of stories to tell us. God Bless him and those that loved him.

My heart goes out to you all. I will miss Pop Pop for the rest of my days. Love to you all.

Ed, May you rest in eternal peace! Thanks for being my friend over the years.

Jan,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this hard period of time. I will always remember how wonderful of a man Ed was and will be up with God. We will always have New Jersey together.

Donna and Chris,
Sorry to hear of your father's passing. From the obituary, it sounds like he had a full life and was a blessing to many. I'm sure he will be missed. May your memories sustain you through your grief.

Sincerely,

My friend from the St. Clare of Assisi Men's Club you will truly be missed. Your willingness to always lend a hand, your sense of humor, and your booming voice will not be forgotten. I hope that your family can find peace in the good memories that you leave us with. They are in our thoughts and prayers.
