My prayers and thoughts are with the Miniat family. Your father was a great man. I remember him when I was younger as being kind and caring. My parents and your parents were friends. My mom Helen Jakubczak was a dear friend of your mothers and my dad Ervin Jakubczak was your parents 'personal' upholsterer. I am sure he will be missed by all of you.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Miniat Family. My late father and husband worked for Miniat's and were always treated with respect and many years of memories were cherished. May all that knew Ed Jr. carry on the lecacy of his kindness and love of life that he had.

Sincerely, Carol ( Hoffman ) Clarke
