To the Brozio Family,
We are so sorry to hear of Edward's passing. He was a great man. There is a special place in heaven for people like Edward. Unfortunately, We did not meet him until a few years ago. We wish we had more time to get to know him better. Edward had great and genuine compassion for his fellow man, even if they were virtually strangers. We will never forget what he and Edwin have done for us. He is in a better place now and he is with friends. Please know that you all are in our thoughts and in our prayers.

Sincerely,
Jimmie Nichols & Lindsey Kreher
