I only learned of his passing today. I am a customer in Houston, TX. I never had the honor of meeting him in person, but he was always kind and courteous. You will be missed. RIP Ed Pryor.

Thinking of Ed's family, with deepest sympathy. I had the pleasure to work with Ed for the last year and a half. Never met in person, but you would not have known that as he became a great friend from day 1. I so looked forward to him sending us song lyrics when emailing weekly orders. Every work day was a great day when I had interaction with Ed. His loss has left a huge void in many hearts in Mobile, AL.
God speed Ed, you will be missed!
