Not sure what to say?

Ed was a cousin and a dear friend. He was very hospitable. We stayed at his house during our family reunion and enjoyed freshly caught crabs from his nets on the Chesapeake Bay. Ed loved to laugh and have fun. My most loved memory is when he received Jesus as his Savior and Lord.

Dear Dad,

I wanted to just let you know how proud you and mom made me feel about being real love birds. My Dad whose nick name was Piggy (thats as long as one of your fish stories) also had one true partner whom my mom Amelia just adored Dad and boy did they love to dance like you and mom. They love music and friends and were always there for even a stranger and of course family and friends. There is so much likeness in both families it is unbelieveable. I'm glad you had all of...

Dad I loveyou will write more later Ed Jr

I just want to say that Poppop will be missed dearly and is still very much loved by everyone. It has now been a little more than a month and things are a little better here in Florida but will never be the same. I think I've finally realized that I can't go to Grandma's anymore and expect Poppop to be sleeping on the couch in his underwear. It took a while to hit me, but I know he's in a better place with no suffering. And I know he will watch down on me and guide me through my life.

Aunt Donia, Tom and I would like to send you our heartfelt condolences. The love you and Uncle Eddie shared was obvious to all those around you. Many couples only dream of having that happiness and you were truely blessed to have lived it. May that love and the faith that you will be together again someday help ease your grief. Uncle Eddie will greatly be missed and we will never forget his kindness and hospitality. He was always smiling and we know he is smiling down on us all now. Love and...

I'll never forget those trips to Florida when I was a kid to see Uncle Eddy and Aunt Donia. It was something my sister Kim and I looked forward to. The Florida sunshine wasn't the only thing that warmed us when we arrived, it was the love from Uncle Eddy and Aunt Donia. They always made us feel at home.
There are a lot of things that I will miss about Uncle Eddy. His warmth, humor, kindness, just to name a few. But, I know that during his life he touched so many that part of him will...

My Uncle Eddie, such a loving and caring man. I will keep my memories close to my heart and never forget all the happiness and love you brought to our family. Keep watching over us as you always have. Our prayers and love go out to all the family and friends of Edward Kurt. We love you. Carolee, Rick, Lori, Ricky, Glen and family.

I lost a brother, I'm still a grieving sister. Eddie you are greatly missed. So many things come to my mind whenever someone speaks your name. Now my memories I will share with your wonderful wife. I'll tell her about a brother's love that helped me grow up. With a broken heart and tear filled eyes, my childhood memories are fresh in my mind. Some make me laugh, others make me cry. The times we shared, the laughs we had, these are the things I miss when I think of you. Your last goodbye...

Uncle Eddie will be a part of all of us the rest of our lives. His humor, stories, and all around jovial manner all helped us to smile a bit more than usual when around him. When I was growing up, going to Uncle Eddie and Aunt Donia's house was a real treat. Always a warm and welcoming environment, I enjoyed the atmosphere of my Aunt, Uncle, and cousin Mark each time we visited. The happiness was contageous! From the country music on the stereo, to the great cup of coffee Aunt Donia...
