Dearest Rose Mary and Mary Ann,

I worked with Ed also at Price Fighters and he seemed to always be there when I needed someone to talk with. He seemed to understand everything that I was going through. He was always willing to go that extra mile to take care of everyone and everything. In fact, I was thinking about him the other day and was wondering how the "old" gang was doing. Please accept my sympathies on your loss. God bless

To the family of Ed,
Please accept my deepest sympathy.
Ski and I worked together at NARF, in the Graphic Arts Shop. Years later, he became my 1st boss when I came to work at Price Fighters.

I will always remember Ed as a dedicated and energetic person. He
was a good HUMAN BEING.

Dear Rose Mary and Mary Ann,

JoJo and I are deeply saddened about your/our loss. We have many fond memories of Ed, as my school mate and our staunch competitor and teammate during the "Petanque" years.

His legacy as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend to so many will be enjoyed for many years to come.

May the comfort of God help you both during this difficult time.

Peace, prayers and blessings,
Barbara (Meagher) Ardagna and JoJo

I remember Ed, you and little Mary Ann from our having worked together at Central Fidelity Bank for several years. Rose Mary, you were an excellent employee---May God Bless you and provide comfort during these difficult days.
Much love, Lula (Potter) Hunter

Ed and I worked together for 32 years, at NADEP and at Price Fighters. Ed was a dear friend and co-worker. He and I worked on countless projects together and traveled extensively. When you spend that much time together, you really get to know the character of the man. Ed was thorough in his work, devoted to his family, friends and church. Ed helped me and many others through many tight spots and always had a positive attitude. He was a cornerstone of Price Fighters and the contibution of...
