My hard working friend is missed!

Ed was my next store neighbor for 25 years. He was my friend and is missed. Ed was excellent at his craft. He did much work at my house through the years. Ed was one of the hardest working men I ever met. Remember listening to Rush Limbaugh with Ed as we were both very conservative individuals.

My heartfelt condolences to Ed's daughters and family. I had no idea he was ill and we are stunned that he has died. In my mind's eye, I see him as he was when he moved across the street from us, so many years ago; so proud and happy with his family, sitting on a chair on the front step etc... We had not had contact in many years, but that doesn't mean we didn't care, only that he seemed to work a great deal and appeared not to be home very often. I will remember Ed as a kind neighbor and proud father, who deserved much, much better than this.

So sorry to hear of Eddie's passing. I've been Wanda's friend for 40+ years and spent a lot of time at the Dabrowski house in the 70's. Eddie was a jokester and quite funny... always with a twinkle in his eye...I will remember him fondly.
