Ann, we are so sorry about Ed. We have not seen either of you since you sold our house in Keller a few years ago. Ed was such a wonderful person, when I worked for TXU, he would stop on his way to the post office to visit with Lee Morrow and me. We always enjoyed his joking around. Our prayers are with you and the rest of the family.
