Not sure what to say?

Barbara, So sorry to hear of Ed's passing. I had fond memories of Ed in High School.

Linda Gaines

I am deeply saddened today as I just learned of Ed's passing. The sharpest mind I ever happened upon in law enforcement, Ed was the dean of the "Head Shed" during 1990's investigation of the student murders in Gainesville. Truly a pleasure to know and work with Ed. Also an excellent firearms instructor.

I extend my sympathies to Ed's family. He was a fine person and excellent FDLE agent. He will be missed by all of his colleagues. Retired Special Agent Bruce Fairburn

My condolences to Ed's family and friends who are all going to greatly miss him!

I am truly sorry to hear of Ed's passing. I worked with him at FDLE. He will be missed.

To Ed’s family: I am extremely sorry to hear of your loss, but please know that my prayers are with you during this time. I, like Karen Weaver, worked with Ed at FDLE; he was a good man, a true friend, and a kind soul to everyone he met. We will surely miss his laugh, humor, and smile. May God bless each of you!! Leisha

I worked with Ed from 1992 to 2001 and he was a great person and will be missed a lot. My sympathy and prayers to the family.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ed's family during this time of loss. Peace be with you all.

To all of Ed's Family and Extended Family: May you find solace in knowing that Ed was so loved by so many - he brought happiness and laughter to our lives in so many ways. He will be missed by all who knew him.
