What a full and long life he lived. And what a wonderful father and grandfather to look up to with gratitude and pride. He left behind a legacy of honor and love.

I want to offer my deepest sympathies to the Gramigna family. I have a ton of treasured memories of Eddie and was honored to know him. Many of my favorite times at MCC involved him and Billy and I miss those days very much. Ed was a true gentleman and was certainly one of a kind. Rest in peace my friend.
