We are thinking of you today, 9-17-2022 as your family gathers for your service. We are glad we got to know you through my mom Shirley (by way of McDonalds!). Enjoyed our telephone conversations.... always providing a laugh! We will have to have a toast to your memory with a Diet Mountain-Dew. We will imagine you sipping your Mt Dew's and watching your sports (with blue eyes shining). 'That' is how we will remember you. Rest in Peace Mr. Ed. Your friends in Georgia, Bruce and Sharon Carlson

I am so sad to hear of Mr. I Ed´s passing. I loved talking with him about the Cubs and giving him a heard time. I wish we had been able to visit more but with Covid it was so difficult. He was a very nice man. I´m so glad I was able to go to his room and see him the last time I stopped with Pringle´s and Mountain Dew. Prayers to his family.
