Dear Borowski Family,
We are very shocked and saddened to hear about Eddie. We knew him from the Northwestern Vets Club--we used to spend quite a bit of time "hanging out" with Ed--he was a wonderful, funny, charming, ambitious and intelligent man. Although we lost touch over the years, he would always invite us to his home in Windsor for a holiday get together--we always enjoyed his company. He will be missed.

Sorry to hear about Ed. I went to college with him. I have fond memories of him coming to West haven to go fishing near my house. He also talked about his parents and his good friend Dave. Ed will be missed

Dear Mrs. Borowski,
We are saddened to hear of Ed's passing. We know that the past few months were not easy for him but we had hoped that we would see him walk into one of our meetings one day soon. He was a joy to know - smart, thoughtful and shared our committment to protect the wetlands. We know he is in a wonderful place today but we shall miss him not being part of our commission. He is in our thoughts and prayers.
