Not sure what to say?

I know it´s been some time since Ed has passed, but being a worker at The Palmerton for nearly two years now, I was fortunate to get to know Ed. He truly was a great guy. Every week during football season, me and Ed would talk about the NFL games especially the eagles. Also we would talk about baseball often. I know that Ed would be very happy that the eagles made it to the super bowl, I know that he will be watching the super bowl from above! I am rooting for the eagles for Ed, this one...

Dear Brenda, Wayne and family. So very sorry about Eddie's passing. Your parents where the best neighbors that we could have had. Iron St was almost always busy on weekends.

Uncle Eddie may you find happiness reuniting with your one true love. RIP

Brenda, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Ed was a baseball fan and looked forward to iron pigs and Phillies games.He also loved his pets. Most recent, his cat buddy,Freddie, gave him such joy. Eddie left this...

There are so many memories of my grandfather that I could share. We spent so much time together for so many years, especially when I was growing up. My grandfather and grandmother encouraged me to explore music at a young age, helping me get a trumpet and join my elementary school band. He fostered my slight obsession with the Titanic disaster, spending a summer helping me build a replica model of the ship. The deliveries from the Schwan's man was a highly anticipated event when we would stay...

I’ve been blessed with having wonderful parents who always showed their love and support for me and my family. My dad was a pretty easy going guy and his smile and laugh is one of just many things I will remember about him. During these last 2 weeks when his health declined we were so lucky to spend so much time with him. We shared many memories and talked about his going home to be with my mom and loved ones. Dad had strong faith and would just say, “I’ll be with Phyllis again and for that...
