To the family of Ed, Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of Ed. We were friends from the "Alley Gang". He was a great person and always had a good attitude. We lost touch, as I moved to Ohio, but was thrilled when he moved in next to my parents house in Norwood. We visited a few times when I came home to visit. He was the same great guy that made you laugh as he was as a teen. He loved his daughter and his family. The world lost a genuine, wonderful soul. Joanne Pullin Curran

To family of Ed Hegarty,

I am truly sorry for your loss, Ed was such great person and friend, he would have me laughing every day at Pentec Health, we would battle over the Eagles and Dallas games. I am truly going to miss his spunk, his smile and laugh, He was my mentor at work and I appreciated his kindness when I lost my mother. May Ed rest in peace and rejoice with his mother and mine. God bless you all.

Ed and I retired on the very same day from Pentec Health in December, 2018. That day, Ed gave such a heartfelt speech. I remember him standing up with microphone in hand, expressing his love, and appreciation for fellow co-workers he called friends. He made me laugh that day when he told me the titanium in his hip joints could set off airport security. Ed had a sense of humor, and some jokes too. But unforgettably on that day, Ed shed some tears, and gave lots and lots of hugs. After wiping away his tears, he gave us the most beautiful never-ending smiles. I'll never forget his smile.
Prayers and condolences go out to Ed's family, loved ones, and many friends. And to his dear daughter Megan, may comfort, sympathy, and much love surround you, and keep you during this difficult time.
