We had the pleasure of meeting Ed about 18 years ago through bowling. He was such a wonderful person. Very quite but had a great smile and will be missed. Fountain Lanes lost a wonderful person. Rest In Peace Ed.

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Edward's family and friends; so sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort at this difficult time.

I only knew Ed from bowling in leagues he was in. He was always friendly and likable and a really good bowler. After reading this, I realized there was a lot more to Ed than most of us knew about. He was a quiet person with a great smile and laugh. Fountain Lanes bowling has lost a true friend. Ed will be missed by all of us bowlers. Rest In Peace Ed.
