Not sure what to say?

I greatly appreciate that Ed remains in our memories for the great man that he was...and is. He was a great leader and servant to our 9th MP Company brothers. We will all meet again at the time of God's choosing but, until then, our remembrances are our most cherished gifts to share with Ed. Thanks for a job well done. Old Reliable.

FOND MEMORIES ALWAYS

Well, six years have passed since my comment upon your passing. Time has marched on but you are always still part of that march. The men of your Company in Vietnam are falling out of the march but a number of us are still in step....and as we walk, so do you. Whenever we get together, you are there in our thoughts and conversations. It is as it should be. We "Old Reliables" are forever brothers. In time, the unit will be reconstituted and we will all truly be together again. Thanks Ed...

I worked for Ed at FPDR for 11 years. He was a kind and compassionate man. I regret that I was not able to attend the services. To you Carole and family, I wish the best of blessings.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Carol and Ed's family. It is with sadness that I reflect on the loss of Ed. I served with him as a 2nd and 1st Lieutenant in the 9th MP Company and was so blessed to have communications with him over the years of my continued active duty and retirement. He was a great mentor and leader. He fills a lot of my memories of those times in Vietnam. He fills my memories now as a leader, mentor, and good friend. I am thankful to have had him in my life. God bless all of you and our great nation.

My deepest sympathies at this sorrowful time. Peace be with you.

LIFE WELL SERVED...
THANK YOU
