My condolences on the loss if your dad. He and Beth were lovely people. Ed had a great sense of humor, too.

Ed was a delightful colleague -- cheerfull, supportive, enthusiastic. i arrived at Sac State in 1966, taught U S History until 2002. Ed was always full of good will and deep professionalism.

Ed & Beth were both terrific people. I knew them first as a child, then as a youth and later for many years as an adult at First United Methodist Church in Sacramento. They were formative in my development. I treasure their memory.

Ed and Beth were delightful to know! We enjoyed being with them in choir and choir retreats. They both contributed so much to friends and to First United Methodist Church here in Sacramento.

My Grandpa... Amongst his many public accomplishments and achievements, in my mind, his greatest legacy was/is the lasting values, perseverance, and honor he instilled in us all as Patriarch of our Family. (I also inherited his habit of being a "night owl"). Love you, Grandpa.
