Uncle Ed was one of a kind. I have the deepest respect for him. When I think of him, I have to smile because of his great sense of humor and the kindness he always possessed. Although he had been sick for many years, he didn't feel sorry for himself. The love he had for Aunt Evelyn is like reading a storybook. He and my Dad were brothers, and when both died only 1 month separated their age. God be with you Aunt Evelyn. He was a very kind and loving gentleman. He will be deeply missed.
