I met Mr. Edwards at Egyptian Lacquer when I worked there as a teen. He always made me smile. I just loved his smile too. He once gave my mom his meatloaf recipe and I still use that recipe to this day. God bless you Mr. Edwards.

So sorry to hear about Bob. I have wonderful memories of Bob when we visited Lafayette and when he visited us in Lebanon, PA.

Bob was a good friend of my father's, Robert Hall Sr. They worked together for many years at Egyptian Lacquer.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time.
