Kendra,

While we have not been friends for many years, and The last time I saw you was when I was working at Fashion-BUg in Dedham w/ your little boy & Mom! Your brother was a kind, generous person, and will be missed by many who knew him. I remember our younger years when we would play after school, and Eddie would always "zoo" us out! I too lost my only brother in 1992 so I know your pain all to well, but my prayers are with you, and your family at this difficult time.....



It was nice to see some old names here as well....People I have not talked to in fifteen years, but I hope everyone is doing good in their lives, and wish everyone well! I will continue to think of you, and hope you find some peace as you try to move forward in your life!I am sorry I did not come to pay my respects to you, and your family over the loss of Ed, but I did not find out until the other day.......Please be well!

I send my deepest condolences to the Family of Eddie. I remember when I would come and see you at Fridays and you would come in to see me when I worked in Dedham at Joes. And when I saw you just a month ago when I came home to visit I would never have thought I would have to write this. You were such a blast to hang around with.Your gonna be missed by so many and I'm glad to have met you.



Your Friend,

Heath J.

My thoughts and prayers are with Eddie's Family. I had known Eddie for many years now and he was one of the nicest people I have ever met. One of my first memories of Eddie is him serving me my first "legal" drink at the bar in Friday's. He will be missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him

Dear family -



It is with so much sadness I sit here to write you this note. Days later I find myself empty that a young, happy, energetic person is such as Ed is no longer among us.



I first met Ed (Bannana Hands - I called him) some number of years ago while workng as a bartender at Friday's. His overwhelming personalilty, the silly way he had, and his uncanny (sp?) way to ALWAYS make you smile is what had friends and I returning back. After ordering something I can still ear him say "What a fine choice you have made this evening." hee hee



I would also see his smiling face through out the West Roxbury area. He could have been at Auntie B's with Danielle or down the Corrib with Christian, but never without his happy inviting face.



It is hard to understand why we on earth are made to try and understant why such amazing people are taken away from us so early. This is when it can be hard to feel comfort in God's way.

Please know that many loving prayers are being sent from our family and from many, many others.



We sent our deepest sympathy to you and every prayer that during this difficult time you can find comfort in each other and in the fact your son/friend/uncle/cousin was thought of and loved dearly.



With prayer,

Laurie Hatzis and Family

I didn't know Eddie for that long but he was the kind of guy that made you feel as though you had known him forever. I knew him from World Gym and Bartending at Friday's in Dedham. Eddie was a very kind and generous guy always with a smile on his face. I will never forget him and will miss him very much. My sympathy goes out to his family, Danielle and friends.

I will always remember Ed for the chronic laughter, the contagious smiles and the loud barreling "SKEETER" everytime I would see him...



Ed will be missed by everyone who's life he touched...especially mine.
