Uncle Ed was one of one. Kind, super funny, and endlessly lighthearted. From live music nights to saturday nights at the local dirt track, he knew how to enjoy life and bring people together. Most of all, the love and care he showed my aunt was something truly special. He will be missed more than words can say.
