Edward M. Kolarz

Ed,
I am going to miss you terribly. You were more like a brother to me than brother-in-law. You were always there to support and guide me no matter what! I always loved the way you were with Ashley, Brittany and Ryan, you were really a father figure to them. I am going to miss the way you would greet us when we came to visit,"Don't you have a home" or "Oh no, I'm leaving" and when it was time to go it was "Get out". That was your way and I loved you for it! I can't believe you're...

Uncle Eddie,
You were the best uncle any girl could ever ask for. You taught me my maneuver ability, always found a way to make me laugh even at my lowest times, let us know when we over stayed our welcome -haha- and you were ALWAYS there for me and belived in me. You became more of a father figure to me. I am really going to miss you soo much! I will take care of Auntie Joanie and Joe, don't worry! I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH and I miss you Uncle Eddie! I still can't believe your gone!

Eddy--
My brother Joe and I loved you like a brother. We've been good friends ever since our beginnings at Shaker. We'll always have our memories of all the good times; Softball, Bowling, Poker and shooting Pool--and of course working side by side for over 29 years-- which was always interesting and usually comical. You were one of a kind and it was an honor to be your friend......

Kolarz Family
Just a few kind words about Ed.He will be sorely missed and always in our hearts at the public works department each and every day.May he rest in peace.

Joe,

Your father was a good person who helped our team (the A's) out of the kindness of his heart. He was funny, gentle and caring guy who we all will miss. I will wear my Hole ridin' baseball pants again this year in his honor for all of his jokes he had about them.

Ed was a friend to me when I first came to Public Works. He taught me a lot and I will always be greatful to him. I will miss him.

To Joanie and Joe... On behalf of the Lamboy Family, please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of a truly great man and a beloved friend. Eddie was kind and gentle and will be sorely missed by many. If we can be of any assistance to you, please let us know. May the Good Lord Bless and keep you both.

Joan,

We are very sorry for the loss of your husband, Ed. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.

Kolarz Family:

I am so sorry for your loss.

Joe - Your father will be missed dearly at Gordon Park and all the other fields. He was a great guy and you should be very proud of him. Not many fathers take the time out of their day to watch their son play ball like your dad did. The Blue Streaks will miss his presence.
