Just thinking about Ed Lewaniak this week. It's been two years since he left us but we still feel the loss like it was yesterday. I worked with Ed for 13 years and he was my friend.
I just wanted to say I love you Ed and miss you so bad.

I am so saddened over Ed's death. When I look back at his life at Benet, it was a life of smiles and kindness. I had Ed in study hall (all four years). He was just a kind heart and everyone loved him. I can still see Eddie walking down the halls of Benet – big smile. May Jesus, Mary and St. Joseph as well as St. Benedict, St. Scolastica, St. Francis, St. Clare and Mr. Shields, Father Ron and all those who were part of the Benet Academy family in heaven welcome him with open arms & hearts!!! Peace and all good, Brother Ed Arambasich, OFM

Ed was a great guy, very fun to talk with. I have many fond memories of him, talking with him while our daughters played softball and seeing him at various school events for our children. He will be deeply missed.
