I have had the pleasure of knowing Ed from walking our dogs at the Crafton/Thornburg Park early mornings. I knew he was'nt feeling well back in December, which is when I last saw him. Myself and others have often wondered about him, since we had not seen him and Hoover down there since. I and a lot of others were shocked to hear of his passing. Ed was one of the niciest guys I have ever met, I really enjoyed our walks and talks, and watching the dogs interact. He really did love Hoover and him Ed. My deepest sympathy to his family, he will be sadly missed and is. I can picture him and Hoover at the park every morning while I am there with my dog. May God bless you all and keep you strong.

Ed, I last saw you in December at Crafton/Thornburg Park where we often walked our dogs together, Hoover, Turk and Pooh Bear. We talked about my loss of Pooh Bear, and how you had not been feeling well. Your morning walk friends were concerned about you and your wanting to drive to your sister's for the holidays. During the past few months you were often spoken of, wondering how you were, since we had not seen you and Hoover. Your being called home was a shock to myself and all yours and Hoovers dog park friends. You were/are one of the niciest guys I have ever met, I so enjoyed our many walks and talks, and Hoover was very well liked by my dog Pooh and Turk, and many other dogs. We would always laugh at his close encounters with Lightning. You are sadly missed, and will always be remembered. Rest in peace, Ed. God bless you, and thanks for the memories.

Andy everyone who knows you will have a sincere sense of loss over your passing. Hopefully your family and friends will hold the memories of your life as a stronger bond than the sadness of your passing. Take care my friend. My thoughts go out to the Lutes family and all who knew Andy.

Pat,
I can' t imagine what this must be like for you and Missy. It's been years since I saw Andy but it seems like yesterday. His smile and warmth and sense of humor are what I remember the most. See you tonight.
Love,
Denise

I played baseball with and against Andy growing up and just the thought of some of our times at practice or between innings makes me smile. All who knew Andy were better for it and I am glad to have been one of them. My sympathies to his family.

Pat I am so sorry for you loss. Andy was such a sweet guy even though he used to harass me to death at Superior Valve.Knowing a mother's heart this has to be hard but keep your hand in God's hand and he will bring you through.

I met Andy 35 years ago in Mrs. Liggins kindergarten class. My first crush. I have continued to remember him as the sweetest boy ever. My sympathies to his family and friends who will miss him dearly.

I used to wait on him at Sammy's after he got off after a grueling day at Mellon. He was ALWAYS a pleasure to be around. My sympathies go out to his family and friends!

When Andy started visiting our home wih Bryan, he soon became one of my favorites among the boys. He was always polite, mannerly and, most of all, humorous. He was a joy to have around. I'm so thankful he and Bryan remained friends all these years. Andy has found his peace now, and is free of all pain. I'm sure our Lord opened His arms wide and welcomed Andy into Paradise. Love you Andy, You will be so missed.
