Edwin J. Graf III

Hey Dad, It´s been quite a while since I posted on here. Life has been pretty crazy! I graduated college a few years ago, and I thought you´d like to know that I´m getting married this weekend. I wish you could be there. I found a great guy and we both are part of the same spiritual fellowship. I think you would really like him. Today is actually a milestone for me, as I celebrate 6 years of adherence to those principles. I´ll be thinking about you. I have a horse, and we have a house and...

Eddie, I give thanks for the memories I have of you today. To all in the Graf family, I remember you always.

My deepest condolences to your family. I took this photo a few years ago while visiting the Sherwood Island 9/11 Memorial. I went to school in New Canaan with Eddie. He was shy & sweet & fun to be around. The photo of his daughter Sarah listed here so resembles young Eddie. Hoping his children continue to climb any difficult mountains in life knowing he is close. Peace be with you all.

I am reading a memoir by clarinetist Brad Terry entitled "I Feel More Like I Do Now Than I Did Yesterday". He used to run a camp on Vinalhaven for adolescent boys, and Eddie is mentioned on a memorial page. I Googled his name and have been reading about his life and family. As a new father it cuts to my core his life stopped so suddenly short, but so do the beautiful messages from his children. I hope you all are well.

We send our deep sympathy to your family. There are no words given that will ever remove the pain of loss. Daily may God continue to give the help needed. Ed touched the lives of others and will always be remembered. May the time finally come when these violent acts are ended forever.

Hey Dad,
It's not fair what happened but hopefully your somewhere happier now. I had a dream with you in it a while ago, where you were still alive and I ran into you at a diner.
Figured I'd get to you a day early, take care big guy.

I was just searching for Ed online this morning and learned of this tragedy. Ed and I worked together in Boston in the 80's at Rizzo Simons Cohn, a small advertising agency. I am so sad to learn of this news. RIP

My name is Carole Moorhouse Rogers. I just found out about Edwin. I never knew him but knew his mom, dad, grandparents, Ed Senior and Alice and called them aunt and uncle. Aunt Vi Graf was my mother's sister. I remember Marguerite taking care of my brother Don and myself after my sister died in 1946 and I can still see uncle
Ed running down Ottawa ave to the store. He never walked when he could run. I am so very sorry for your loss. We hope to visit the memorial site sometime in 2012...
