I will miss your hugs on Sunday Morning. Your kindness and gentle spirit touched me. We had so much fun at the Journey to Christmas, Bethlehem Village. The wood working shed you built is awesome and your willingness to dress up and be our carpenter. I wonder just how many people got to use a miter saw for the first time. I will miss you, my dear friend.

My grandma, Esther Mounce, was a longtime neighbor of Ed. Every time I saw him in Lodi we would speak about her. And we'd talk about all the thing he was involved with. Ed was always helping someone in Lodi! Just two weeks ago we were chatting at Richmaid. I will miss him so very much! Ed was an amazing man and a great Lodian. My prayer and thoughts for the family.

We remember a dear sweet, gentle man. We were always happy to see him at the door of the church, St Peters. He loved greeting the many members of the congregation. Both he and his wife, Elvina, very strong people. Our condolences to the whole family and he will be missed.
Blessings, Bob and Wanda Hancock, La Pine, Oregon.
