Not sure what to say?

I'm sorry to hear about Eddie's passing. We worked together at Wagner Associates and I remember him as one of the best draftsmen and nicest guys that I have ever worked with. I'm one of the many who have fond memories of Ed.

I have many fond memories chatting with Ed, our first next door neighbor, when we moved to a newly-constructed street in Spring township. He was so kind to loan me his drafting tools when I took mechanical drawing in high school. A thoughtful quiet man, he will be missed by many.

My parents have known and lived next door to Ed for the past 40 years. Our families have always been very close and it saddens me deeply to learn of his passing. Ed was always a kind and quiet man. We will miss him Very Much. Sending lots of Love & Sympathy from our family to yours.

Very sorry to read of the passing of an old friend. We worked together as arch. draftsman @ Wagner Assoc.& walked uptown almost every day at lunch for years! We also met at the Berkshire Mall after both of us had retired to discuss the good times we had shared.
I have never met his sons that he was very proud of. Eddie kept me up to date on West Point, his son the doctor & the many concerts of the greatful dead ! I will miss a good friend!

So sorry for your loss. I was the next door neighbor of your father's parents on Perkiomen Avenue: Susan Grossman. I remember when he came home from the Air Force and used to take care of his green and white Ford in the back driveway. I wish all of you well.
