I worked with Ed in Lapeer County, as the 4-H Youth Agent. He was a very hard working person, always working to improve various situations and help the farmers in the county. He accompanied me and 30+ youth to "Citizenship Short Course" in Washington DC. We both grew up in large Catholic Families, on a farm and in a small community. I want to extend my sympathy to the family and I will keep Ed in my prayers.

I am sorry to learn that Ed has left us. He was always a welcome presence in various family or neighborhood gatherings. I am saddened to think that when I saw him in October, that was to be the last time. I cannot imagine that he had a single enemy. May he Rest In Peace. And may you, his family, find consolation in the God Ed knew, and in the faith you continue share with one another.
(We will send a card for the family to Jim.)
