My Condolences to the McCaffrey family. Ed was a nice man and generous. May His sole rest in peace. He was my parent's neighbor.

Oh Eddie...I loved your smile. You were always one of the good guys. The world is lessened by your absence. Peace to you and your family.

Jane, My sincere condolences go out to you. You and Ed were always so kind to me and I will always remember that. You will be in my thoughts and good wishes. Love and big hugs, Joyce Davis

Our family is thinking of your family and how much you mean to all of them. I will keep you in my prayers. The supportive words you shared with Dad when Mom left us brought smiles to our family. Eddie,I know your family misses you dearly. I hope there is some solace in knowing you have reunited with some wonderful family. Peace.

Love you Bro~ I always did and always will~ God Bless~ you are with Mom and that gives me great peace~

Ed became a close friend back in 1976, when I as a new senior coming to Mascenic halfway through the year. He always had a smile and positive outlook. Ed became a very good friend and influence. He and I had fun together even falling out of my 68' convertible! I know he will be received lovingly into the arms of our Lord.

I'm very sorry for his family's immense loss. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.

I will be thinking of you as you celebrate his life and mourn his loss.

Dear Jane and family

I am devistated by this news. "Eddie", as I knew him, was my childhood best friend and Marie and my mom were also very close for years. Our sincerest condolences to you all. Just heartbroken to have just discovered this news. Hugs to all.

Will definitely see you all in October, and our condolences also go out to Ed's three sisters. We'll be in touch.
