I had the pleasure of working with Jed at Anchor in the early 70s and recall that he always was in a good mood. I am sorry for your loss. May God give you comfort during this difficult time.

I have had the priviledge of knowing Jed for almost fity (50) years and when I think of Jed I can't help but think of the term "Fine Gentleman." Never heard him say a bad word about anyone else, extremely hardworking, and one of the most talented people I ever came across in my life. My sincere condolences to Carmilla and the family but know they are comforted by the blessings they received by having Jed in their life.

Dear Jed and family . . . I know Marvin is greeting Jed in the beautiful realm of our next life. They will be sharing many a laugh and great memory, while all of us here on earth will be grieving his loss. I know we'll see him again, but I will miss him until then. My love to all of you. May you find the peace that I know Jed has found. God be with you all in this hard time.

It is almost impossible to imagine this world without our beloved Jed. What joy he brought into so many lives, and how we loved him! We will meet again, sweet friend, and I will let you sing every verse to "Grief, Misery and Woe"
Always,
