Ed was one of the kindest, funniest, sweetest men I've had the pleasure to know at Crozer. I wish his family strength and peace during this time of sorrow. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.

I worked at Crozer for many years and it was a pleasure to work along side of Ed. Not only was he one of the funniest guys ever - he was always willing to share his knowledge and skills of his carpentry profession. There is not any doubt that I learned so much from "Mr. Ed" as we some times called him. I can tell you that we have lost a good man and he will be missed immensely. I have many fond memories of Ed and will never forget him. Mary, we will keep you and your family in our prayers.
