As I laid in ICU last week Mitzi came in and said I had to come home for the holiday and guess what by the Grace of God I am here and I know you had something to do with it. We will keep the Irish pride on earth going stong and I am sure my mom and her family will include you in their Irish pride in heaven. "ERIN GO BRAGH" Big Ed

I THINK OF YOU OFTEN

R.I.P. DAD

Mitzi and family,
My deepest sympathy in your loss of Ed. He was one of the good guys, one of the biggest hearts I've ever known! Ed never let anything get him down, I know he inspired alot of kids he worked with to never give up on their dreams and life. You did good, Ed!

Our prayers and sympathy are with you Mitzi. God has embraced Ed in his arms and has welcomed him to Heaven. On a personal note. Ed and I talked a lot before I moved away. He always gave me advice and always had good things to say. I know he struggled,but he was also a fighter. He did so many great things in his life. He has his place among the Angels. Love and Prayers always.

Brian and Sally and Family.

Mitzi
We know the last year has been very hard on you and so hard on Ed. God saw that the road was getting rough for both of you. So He put his arms around Ed and lifted him to rest. We know a part of us went with you Ed so you didn't go alone.

Mitzi these past few days have been hard for you and my prayers have been with you to give you strength. Nothing I can say now can ease your pain and feeling of lost but as each day goes by I pray that you find confort and peace. Kathy Benson

Dear Mitzi and family, I was so sorry to hear of Ed's passing. He was a very kind and generous soul to everyone who knew him. The kids on the unit were especially fond of him. He had a way to always make them feel special and a knack to encourage them to be the best they could be. I will remember him always for his willingness to help whenever we needed someone to go the extra mile. He enjoyed the good times and endured the bad. God Bless him and your family and I feel sure he'll be...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
