I have many fond memories of Ed and Mildred as I was growing up. Playing cards, with my Mom and Dad, fishing stories with Dad, but my best memory was all the times Ed would get excited and move his fist towards his mouth and laugh. It always made me laugh and feel good.

Even in his last days he was talking about his family and enjoying some laughs. He would want us to remember him that way.

Sorry for your loss , always enjoyed Ed coming to the farm market and later our garden center with Jerry. Dad always had fun fishing, playing cards and going through the fields picking sweet corn and other vegetables with Ed. Take care, Jon and Julie Neu
