Edward D. Jacobi

Thinking of you Marilyn on the Anniversary of Ed's passing. I know how hard it has been on you and how much you loved Ed but remember how much he loved you and still does in Heaven. He is now an Angel watching over you and will protect you from all things. May God give you the strength to carry on. I am here for you anytime you need. Your friend always.

Ed, I will always treasure our shared interest in the Summer Sunday breakfasts. Your many years of faithfully setting up the Small Hall on summer Saturdays was so typical of your quiet, loyal commitment to all of us at Grace. There was no reward, only a job faithfully done year after year.
Your service to and with the Tuesday group was in the same spirit: regular, quiet, no reminding needed, always that caring, generous gift to others.
Undergirding your service was such natural...

Ed, It is so hard to believe that it has been a year already since you left us. We all still miss you and love you. I know you are no longer in pain and are no longer struggling to breathe and that makes it a little easier to cope with. I pray that God's blessings will be with Marilyn during this time.
Love, Pat

well it's been almost a year since you left and I just wanted to say that we all still miss and love you very much! Especially your little buddy Trevor he is having such a hard time still about losing you! He just did an assignment in school about you! Yes we all wish you were still here with us but we are glad that you aren't suffering any more. We will always love you and miss you and think of you always. You will always be in our hearts and in out thoughts! Keep watching us and protecting...

My darling Ed,
It is closing in on one year since you have been gone. How I do miss you. Things will happen, people will say something, and I think to myself "I need to tell that to Ed" but you are not here for me to tell. The pain of your being gone is still with me. Will I ever get over the pain? I try to remember that you are in a better place now and no longer have to struggle to breathe and it helps to know that.
I love you and miss you so much.
Love,
Marilyn

Marilyn, you made Ed's last years so very happy. It was a joy to see the pleasure in his face when he looked at you. Thinking of you on this anniversary.

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face.
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.
His Garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain.
And knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult, he closed your tired eyes,
He whispered to you "Peace be Thine" and gave you wings to fly.
When we...

I am very sorry about Ed. I wish you all the strenght and all the shoulders in the world to help you get through this. Remember that he is not in pain and is in a better place and you will be reunited in another place.
I love you very much,
Love always ,

Marilyn, I know that no one can end the pain that you are feeling right now. But I can help by sharing it with you so it's not so great. I am beside you and you are in my thoughts and prayers. Remember that Ed still loves you and he will for eternity just as you will love him for eternity. I love you very much and I wish I was there with you so you could lean on me.
