Kirk and I knew Ed from when we were newlyweds in 1984...and always rejoiced in any time we had around Ed and Karen, very brief in the last number of years. We pray you will sense, without question, of God's comfort for those who remain, knowing Ed is jumping for joy! He was a blessing in our lives, though in brief periods through the past 25 years. A straight arrow! Blessings to you....Rosie and Kirk Keller

I was sorry to see of Ed's passing. I don't know if you all remember me, but I am Art Yadon's middle daughter.
Even though my father would no longer remember Ed, as he has Allziemher's, in reality I know that he would be sad. I remember all of you very well and wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this hard time. May God bless you all.
