My dear neighbor and family,



My thoughts and prayers are with you all.



All of us here in Montclare will dearly miss him and also seeing that wonderful man on his lawnmower having such a good time. He made me smile everytime.



Mr. Dickie now rests in Jesus's arms, of that I feel sure.

Hi everyone, I was so sad to hear the news of Ed's passing. I will remember him as a happy, sweet man- I don't think I ever saw him in a bad mood. Please know that you are all in my thoughts, and that Ed will be sorely missed.

Annette, Mary Ann, Tommy, Wes and Mel, I was just now reading the paper and saw the sad news. I am so sorry for your loss and you know you all have my love and sympathy. I wrote Kelly and told her. She fondly remembered some of our great times together. I was honored to have Ed as my father-in-law. He was simply the best and will be greatly missed. Love to all of you.
