Not sure what to say?

Remember Ed from umpiring when I worked for John Belson with the Hackensack semi-pro Met League team. Ed was an awesome umpire and one really nice guy. My condolences to the family.

I just came across Eddie's obituary and am so sorry to hear of his passing. I hope you are doing well.

I was lucky to have had Mr Strohmeyer as a math teacher for two years. Most remember him for his work in sports but he had an amazing talent to make algebra exciting. And that is saying a lot. Without a doubt he was one of my two favorite teachers, the other was Mr Mullin. Both are now gone but even 35 years later I often think about them both. I know countless others were also touched and will always hold fond memories. What a wonderful legacy. Joe Eriksen THS Class of 74

My sincere condolences to Beatrice and family on the lost of this wonderful man. I knew both of them at St Cecilia's during our high school days and had family friends who Ed coached at Tenafly High School and always heard his name mentioned with admiration and respect.

Strohmeyer Family,

I knew Ed for only a short time, having been introduced to him at Nautilus Fitness in Westwood a little over a year ago. We realized we had a connection as, in 1961, I had played in The Bergen County Jamboree, his creation and near and dear to his heart. Every time I saw him at the fitness center, he would yell out, "Bill Bors, Park Ridge High School, class of 1961". He was a great guy who I looked forward to seeing and reminiscing with. I will miss him. ...

Bea,

Condolences to you and your children. Our father admired Ed greatly.

To the Strohmeyer family:
I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Ed. I will keep him in my prayers. Ed was my friend and mentor in officiating Football, Basketball and Baseball. He was a wonderful individual and always treated you with respect. He will surely be missed. God bless you.

Bea, you know my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Wish I could be with you but you know the circumstances. God bless you and your family. Betty and Jerry Plisek, Old Saybrook, CT

To the Strohmeyer Family

My deepest sympathies on the passing of Ed. Your loss is shared by all in the basketball officiating community. Ed was the quintessential professional, always willing to guide and instruct. He exemplified all that is "right" about our avocation. I will miss his honesty and frankness combined with his caring about the game. Rest in peace my friend. Sincerely
