Not sure what to say?

Ed and my brother Paul were lifelong, best friends. And they were both the best of men. Kind, generous, warm and loving. I miss them both, but take some solace in knowing that they are together again.

There are people that we meet, over and over, but never quite get to a deep relationship with but eventually wish you had. Ed was that type of guy in my life. As a photographer Ed came into the Color lab I worked at and immediately, every time we would trade barbs and both of us were laughing. Then he would leave until the next week or the week after. When he came back you had a feeling that he listened to you, and you listened back. Ed had all the social graces bar none. I am not surprised...

I think of my dear friend each day and about how much I miss him. He brought so much joy and laughter into my life and the lives of so many others even when he was coping with his health issues. I could go on and on about his generosity, his incredible talent and so many other wonderful traits his skills. Love you brother!

I just heard about Eds' Passing and it broke my heart! I knew Ed because I was the Travel Co-ordinator for Chelmsford Youth Soccer and my kids played Sports at CHS. Ed was one of the Finest People I have ever met and I hope my son grows up to be as Great a Guy as Ed was! My prayers go to the Family-RIP ED!

My deepest sympathy to my friend Chris and her family. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Amid the teenage angst and pecking order trivia of high school, Ed stood out as one of the nicest guys at XBHS. I've no doubt his personality served him well in later life. My condolences to his family and friends.

My deepest sympathies to Chris and the entire McKinnon family. Simply put, Ed was a great guy! He will truly be missed! Your friendship will always be treasured! Rest in peace Brother!
