Edward Gruninger

Just learned of Ed´s passing. He was often out very early in the morning looking for crooks trying to take advantage of, steal, from the elderly. I know his family misses him as his friends do.

It was a shock to hear about Eds passing!
I worked with him for several years at the Sheriffs Dept !
His sense of humor was incredible!
His practical jokes were some of the most well thought out works I´ve ever seen !
We lost touch with each other over the years, but I thought about him often !!
He was a good friend ! He will be missed !

I was saddened to hear of Ed's passing. He was truly a joy to work with, and his impact on our lives will not be forgotten. Ed had an incredible talent for handling elderly cases, making a difference in so many lives with his compassion and dedication.

Beyond his professionalism, Ed brought so much laughter into our workplace. I´ll always cherish the memory of him handcuffing me in the elevator and leaving me there, riding from floor to floor until I finally landed back on the 9th floor, where he finally uncuffed me. We laughed so hard during that silly stunt-it´s just one of the many wonderful memories I hold dear.
Ed was a remarkable person, and he will be greatly missed.

Fly high, buddy...

With heartfelt condolences,

My condolences to you. Ed helped "raise" me in ECU and was relentless in is pursuit of justice for victims.

I´m so sorry to hear of Ed´s passing. Ed was a great friend and mentor to me at the DA´s Office. No one worked harder to protect elderly and at-risk adults in Denver and we had some great times working together. Rest in peace buddy.

Just sent a picture of him with three of his sisters from 12 years ago. Will always be in our hearts

Memories

Eddie and I played a lot of baseball together as kids. Lots of broken windows. Fond memories. Rest in peace, my friend.

Have a lot of fond memories of Eddie and baseball. His dad was our coach for many years. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Ed protected the At Risk population before it was on the radar of legislature. He was the best.
