...only good memories of Ed and Luella and family.

Ed left an indelible mark on everybody who knew him. He was, without a doubt, the best boss I ever had. I was saddened to read of his passing, but at the same time rejoice for his life and witness to a world in need. Thank you Ed for the memories.

Dear Luella and family,
My memories of Ed are too numerous to list here because Ed always made my day. I worked for Ed while he was General Secretary and then moved to Marble. I remember fondly when you and Ed visited me in SC when I retired here in 2013 which was so special. Ed always made me feel special and always had time to ask me how things were going in my local Queens church and even preached there on a special occasion. For all that Ed gave to us, I give thanks and appreciation....

Dear Luella and your loving family: How fortunate that my membership at Marble Collegiate Church in New York City gave me the opportunity to know you and Ed. You both were a shining light of grace and wisdom through your many years as part of that church family. My sincerest sympathies are with all of you. Christy Brown

Ed, you lived a great life here on Earth and are now in God's hands. You made a real difference in the lives of many, many people and you will be long remembered. You fought the good fight, you finished the race, you kept the faith. Thanks for letting your light shine! Blessings to the Mulder family - you should be very proud of Ed - he was what many of us aspire to be.

Dear Luella, Tim, Mary, Mark, and Betsy, How lucky was I to have done field education with Ed at Second Reformed (Hackensack, N.J.) in 1976? How lucky was I to have heard great preaching each Sunday, enhanced by those piercing blue eyes connecting with the congregation? How lucky was I to linger around the dining room table on Maple Hill Drive (#356?) every Sunday, after church, to enjoy a sumptuous dinner (prepared by Lu early in the morning) and pick Ed's brain about all things...

Ed Mulder was the ultimate in serving God.He kept my life going in the right direction.i am so sorry about his passing but his teachings inspiration and understanding will always be in my heart. My love and condolences to ted Mulder family.
