We joined St. George Episcopal Church over a decade ago due largely to parishioners who were very welcoming, Ed and his wife Jane included. So we have known each other in elder age which has been a treat to us. We have never seen him without a smile, eve in his last days. Surely, he rests in peace.

Our condolences to the entire Chromezak family.
Ed and Jane are such wonderful neighbors to us. We remember meeting them for the first time, they reached out to us with their kindness the day we moved in next door to them. Super people. We miss hearing him watching the Phillies games on their back patio on warm summer nights. I miss him coming over to see what I was working on out back on the weekends. We miss joking around with him. We remember the delicious gifts from his garden that he shared with us. He grew the absolute best tomatoes in Lower Saucon!
Such a great man. We love you Ed, you will be greatly missed!
Love,
Mike and Dana Kinker
