My thoughts and prayers are with the family. My Father was a classmate of Ed"s and vistied him in Arizona, and Oregon. They even took a litle cruise up the Washington on Ed boat. It is a sad day on earth but heaven has gained a special person.

My Mother Arlene Wright Dowdy was in Ed's High School class in Jetmore-my Grandmother Daisy Wright taught him in that one room Schoolhouse; he started the building project for a Community Center in Jetmore. My Mom shared good memories of their time in Western Kansas. -R. Dowdy Overland Park, KS
