To mom and all my brothers and sisters: I miss our father who art in heaven and I know you all do too. When he died, i was sad for me and you all every moment of every day at first. I cried and hated that he was gone. I couldn´t do anything but be sad. But today I remembered how cool it was to watch him shave in the morning. This memory might be from when we lived in the trailer. The humid bathroom, the scraping sound on his skin, the smell of old spice aftershave; just a little thing to think about, about him from when he was young and beardless and I was younger still. The picture in my head made me feel warm, and it seemed I´d held that time and place in my mind with Dad on purpose. Beloved family, maybe you have a Dad room in your head too, that you visit. Let me know. If you tell me, I´ll let you have a spot in my room. Then the memories can be roommates.

Camping at Rocky MTN. National Park, crawfish boils, trip to El Paso to see Larry, Cajun Night before Christmas, prayers before meals, his love for family and friends. You're missed, love George.

To the LeJeune Family: Please forgive these late condolences in the loss of the patriarch of your family. Our family also belonged to Immaculate Conception Catholic , and I remember your family sitting in the right front pews. My mother, Genevieve Scherbenski, who taught 2nd grade CCD for many years passed away last year. Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

I loved reading Ed´s daily musings of the daily mass; truly a strong and devoted father who was true to the path of the Lord. I hope to see him in Heaven again one day.

Bless you all! Ed was a solid person in our community and in the church I remember at mass the LeJeune´s the Bruger´s and the Banecks´s all filling a pew. Such a great man!
