Ed Kranepool

Some years ago I had the opportunity and pleasure of spending a few hours with Ed in a large tent at Jones Beach for the Memorial Day celebration. Ed was a great raconteur and amazingly modest about his career. And he treated me almost as a colleague (I definitely wasn't!) Ed was REALLY nice man!!

A favorite of so many fans, he was with the Mets through the ups and down. A great and dedicated member of the Mets.

Mr. Kranepool was such a dedicated member of the Mets franchise. A credit to the team and to the sport. Sincere condolences to the Kranepool family, May God be with you all in your time of loss.

Dear Kranepool family . Please know that Edward Emil Kranepool truly was a man whom the sages and rebees wrote about in the Bible who lived his life with humility, charity, grace, and joy. He was indeed a just and righteous man who walked with God daily on this earth and has now received Everlasting Life.

I met Eddie a few times. What a gentleman.
The first time was in the early 70's when he and Ron Swoboda came to our Mall in Rockland County in NY. They both signed Styrofoam baseballs.
The other times I met Eddie was when he came to my hometown of Suffern NY. He appeared at our Sabrett's Hotdog store. Always a pleasure to chat with.
May Ed rest in peace and know he is in no more pain and suffering.
Thanks for your memories Eddie.

Ed was my favorite Met in the 1970s. The Mets were not very good, but Ed was always a bright spot. RIP s@Steady Eddie.

God bless Mr. Edward Kranpool we thank you for your years of service for the New York Mets!!
Will never forget 1969 was a thrilling time for me in my boyhood.. Still have memorabilia from 69 Series ..
Rest Well

RIP Ed

Mr. Kranepool was a boyhood idol of mine. I thanked him in person during an autograph session at Roosevelt Field for the 1969 championship season. He was gracious, affable, and signed a 1971 yearbook along with Tommy Agee and Art Shamsky. He was and is a class act! May he rest in peace!
