To the entire Healey family, Terribly saddened to hear of the passing of Ed. Growing up with all of you brings back such fond memories for myself and all of my siblings. We wish you strength and pray for your comfort. Across the years and miles,

July 2004, Nuerburgring Nordschleife

I first met Ed in in 2002 at the Nuerburgring Nordschleife race track in Germany.
We 'bumped into' each other (off the track!) at least once during every one of my subsequent 12 trips over then next 5 years, both at the NS and afterhours in the PK or another restaurant in town. Ed obviously took great joy in driving, and I think even greater joy in helping others to safely and quickly experience the greatest strip of blacktop in the world.
Sharing all too few of these laps with...

Mary,
I am so sorry for the loss of your big brother. May God bless you and your children as I know they have many wonderful memories of their uncle.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

Ed had been on our minds all summer. We knew how ill he was, but his last email in June was positive and you could still see his smile in his words.

It is hard to put into words how much we miss Ed already. He was a great, long time friend who we shared many adventures with. Track meets, car races, the lake, and the Sunday afternoon phone calls, "I am driving through Connecticut and will stop and see you guys". We even stayed in touch and saw Ed twice when he moved to Ireland.

I've been thinking of the Healey family since I heard the news that Ed was ill. Many long time friends rallied to show support, truly a testament to the strong connections Ed made during his life.
I met Ed while we were in high school and haven't seen him in many years. But seeing recent photos I can see that his trademark smile never changed.
Ed will live on in the memories of his children, family and friends.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Ed was truly my best friend at Holy Family Elementary School and Notre Dame High School. Wherever he was, whatever he was doing, it was the best place, the most fun thing to do. I miss him.
