My deepest sympathies to the family. Ed´s dad was my dad´s (Allen Fyock) nephew and friend, and the families spent time together as we were all growing up. Ed was a nice kid and we always had fun. I am grateful to hear that Ed accepted Christ as his savior, and look forward to seeing him in heaven. Praying for your peace and comfort.

Ed, you were a great friend to me and I will always treasure the companionship that you offered to me. I enjoyed the conversations that we had about so many things. This place will be very quiet now that you are gone. I will miss you terribly. Your family and the rest of your friends will remain in my prayers.
