We are so sorry to learn of Ed's passing and are sharing our sympathies with you all.

To Marlene and the entire Shidler family. Please know that our sympathies are with you Marlene and your whole family. Both you and Ed have been and are wonderful neighbors here at Siesta Sands in Sarasota. Leaning over the railing, enjoying the sunsets, and wishing each other another good day will not soon be forgotten and will be missed.

Very sad. Ed was a good man and his family should be very proud of their patriarch. Just wanted to thank Ed for all he did for me. Ed will be dearly missed.
