To Ed's Family
I am so very sorry for your loss. I formerly worked for Auto/Mate and spoke with Ed many many times while there. Being the first point of contact the calls that came in were mostly angry people in a hurry and most times rude. Ed was a breath of fresh air. I truly enjoyed talking with him, he was very kind, patient and very considerate. He truly loved his family and mentioned you any chance he had. I feel that during those years we had a great working friendship and he will truly be missed.
My sincerest condolences
