Breanna.....I am so sorry on the passing of your dad. Lockport has lost a great one. Knew your father for many years starting in my teens. Always a smile on his face & would help anyone with anything. Also a handshake that would not quit. He always called a spade a spade. Will miss him. Take care of yourself and God Bless.

Absolutely loved my brother, he was an amazing person always had jokes and would give the shirt off his back to help you.. I am so thankful I was able to spend time this last Thanksgiving moving hay and enjoying ourselves.. getting to spend time with hi

I will forever miss my brother and the good times we've had.. having those cold beer conversations, enjoying farm life and most of all those jokes he had and that laugh will be missed...

I spent a great deal of my early life working and playing with Ed. We played and partied hard, and worked harder yet. Ed was the strongest person I ever knew. I will miss Ed, his work ethic was second to none. Craig Massey
