I was just told that Ed pass away. I am so sorry. He was an inspiration. His upbeat attitude carried him through, even with the premature loss of Louise. We got to know each other when he and I carried mail back in the early 1970's. From then on, we would of touch base. I'll add this picture the night Joe Gaul was reelected mayor and I was elected to City Council -- 38 years ago. God rest his soul!
