Dear Virginia, Linda, Pam, and families, When I was a girl living in Duncan OK at 916 Chestnut, I remember Ed visiting us, telling us of his plans to retire from Halliburton at 50 or 55 and really live.

May all your memories of Ed be happy ones; may you look forward with the strength, love, humor, and courage Ed would...
