Not sure what to say?

Father Ed was a loving and kind spiritual director. He helped me through the most difficult time in my life. I will never forget the times we laughed and prayed together. Rest in peace dear friend.

Fr.Ed was a great family friend who was a blessing to our large family. We enjoyed many celebrations at our home in Pittsburgh. Also went on many missions with him as a teen with my mother supporting his dedication to helping the poor. Always with lots of laughter (with him and his brother Fr. Joe). A man of god with a deep faith and a great spiritual influence on everyone he met. He baptized my son Adam who is now 31. Will miss you. RIP Fr. Ed. Love from all the Hodges.

TRULY A BEAUTIFUL PERSON, A GOOD FRIEND, A KIND PERSON, A HOLY MAN. REST IN PEACE FATHER ED.

Fr Ed, you were a gift of love and laughter to this world-and especially me. Love you forever, Patti

RIP Fr. Ed I will cherish the time I shared with you.

Fr Ed celebrated our wedding mass in 1997. He was a beloved friend of our family as well as served with my parents during MANY marriage Encounter weekends/events. I have fond memories as a child growing up with Fr Ed taking part in family dinners at our home and celebrating mass for us in our home. As a young adult, he inspired me to be a thinker, and ponder so many concepts in preparation for adulthood. He will truly be missed by our family.
