Dear Christa and family, I will always remember Ed as a kind gentleman who took care of me during our time at Ft Jackson,SC.

Thank you for cherished memories during my lonely times in the military. Hope you are doing well. I send my Aloha to you and your family. Mel Yamanaka Hilo, Hawaii

Dear Christa and the Midkiff family, I send my deepest condolences to you and your family. Ed and I were roommates stationed at Ft Jackson, SC back in ‘72-‘73.

May God comfort you in the days to come. ~ Blue Ridge Collision Center Staff
