Edward Joseph O'Neill

Always my Family Reunion grocery-shopping partner!

He is missed by all his Milford friends. His friendly smile and his Irish greeting after his trip to Ireland will be remembered the rest of my life

Hi Harriet and Kerry-
I'm so sorry I didn't hear about Ed's passing until yesterday. His good sense of humor and generosity will be greatly missed by many who knew him.

I remember him best on the tennis courts at High Lane. He was always fun to play with and he was a true gentleman. I never saw him lose his temper or complain about anything. He was just a great person to know!
Warm regards, Henry and Elaine Dove

A classy , giving, fun-loving man.

Two things that stand out in my memory ... (1) how much he helped my cousin (Harriet´s brother) fight through never-ending back pain and more .... and ... (2) being my co- shopper at family reunions in Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head. We had a ball buying foods selected by as many as 23 of our fellow "Shepperds."

My sincere sympathy to Harriet and family.

Our deepest sympathy to the O'Neill family. Ed was a super person. We will pray for him. Jane Beirne McGuire and Honoria.

Will miss our numerous conversations over a cold beer.Spent alot of time with Eddie over the years and enjoyed our one on one discussions and trips to local golf tournaments.We will truly miss you Fast Eddie.

To Mary, Patty, and Nancy, I am so sorry for the loss of Eddie. Such fond memories of Eddie and all of your family. Joy Swanson Peterson

Never met a nicer guy. Always a kind word. Always a nice compliment. A true gentleman and friend. Of late I would see Ed at the Playwright- always a nice firm handshake and a hearty hello. God bless you Ed.

Eddie was the essence of generosity, kindness and wisdom. It's 1998, I've arranged for the nephew an namesake of Michael Collins to visit the US for a 10 ay lecture tour hoping to raise $10,000 for the Michael Collins Foundation that assists Irish students in attending college. I'm over my head when I reach out to Eddie whose bounty of trust and friendships have no boundaries; thus over $30,000 is raised.

To quote George Bernard Shaw, "It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations."

One can only imagine how many found their way due to Eddie's "bright torch" - a man for all seasons...

Our sympathy to the O'Neill Family.

I will miss our talks at Milford beach. Rest In Peace Ed

We loved Ed and thought of him and his entire family as our family. No one could tell a story or give a eulogy better than Eddie. As his friends at the BBG called him affectionately "The Fast One", he'll be missed by many but we know he's in Heaven entertaining the angels. Our hearts go out to Harriet, Ryan, Kevin and Kerry and his beloved grandsons.
