Not sure what to say?

I was so lucky to be accepted to the SFPD in 1972. So many outstanding dedicated officers. After a few years I got to work with different Inspectors. Chief Nelder hand picked the best by merit. I always heard stories of his pranks. More importantly the class act he was and the great homicides he solved. Truely a dedicated cop serving the citizens of SF with the best he had. God Bless Inspector Erdelatz

Prayers for the Erdelatz family. We only met Ed a handful of times but he was a great caring person to us. His work may be over here but I´m sure he will still be working in heaven. watching over the family and friends.

Eddie was a noble man and an amazing policeman. He and his partner were faithful to my brother`s case for many years. They not only investigated the case that eased our family´s pain ... Eddie was also a very healing presence to my family. Eddie`s faith was tangible and inspirational. He is very much with us now. Thank you, Eddie.
