Dear Phyllis and family,

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Ed was always so sweet to me and I fondly remember our stroll through the Latin Quarter in Paris and our wonderful dinner at Le Procope. He will be missed by everyone who had the great privilege and honor of knowing him. Thinking of you with love from,

I have only the warmest of memories of Ed. When growing up with Scott and Mindy, whenever our group of friends would end up at the house, Ed was always more kind and patient with us than he ever needed to be. I will remember his warmth, gentleness, and sense of humor. Our thoughts are with you all during this difficult time. Fondly, Steve Rosenberg
