Edward S. Richards, Sr.

So sorry for your loss. I paraded with Ed back in the 60's before I when into the Navy. Ed and my father were friend and paraded in the Kingsmen N.Y.B. together when he was Captain. I would see Ed over the years and he was always the same, a GREAT guy and gentleman. We would wish each other good luck and Happy New Years. We the Mummers have lost one of the great mummers and friends. From Golden Crown N.Y.B., You are In my Prayers and Thoughts. Bill Burke Jr.

Aunt Pat & family, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Uncle Ed will be deeply missed. We will cherish all the memories of him. Never once have we ever seen him without a smile. We love you all, rest in peace uncle Ed .

RIP my friend!

I am truly sorry to hear that Edward has fallen asleep in death. May he sleep peacefully until Jesus calls him to be resurrected and to rejoin family and friends (Jo 3:16). Please accept my condolences. Andrew

One of the added benefits to getting married to Francie was joining her family and having the honor of meeting one of the nicest, most outgoing people I ever encountered. Uncle Ed had a way of making people feel welcome.

I never remember a time when I did not smile while I was around him.

He was certainly special.A great Father, a great Uncle, and a great friend.

Our loss is Heavens gain....

We have been so fortunate to have you and your family as our neighbors. Your smile and positive outlook would brighten our days. Loved seeing Ed, Charlie and Pat on a daily basis and spending time together on Christmas Eve. You will be missed!

Granddad, you will be greatly missed by all who knew you! You were an amazing man, and I'm blessed to have had you as a grandfather to me, and as a great-grandfather to Genna and Daniella. We love you so much!

We will all miss him. My Dad was really proud of Uncle Ed and all that he was able to accomplish. My mother has known Uncle Ed since he was six years old! My Mom cannot attend the funeral, but sends her prayers and condolences. We are all praying for his soul and for your entire family. Uncle Eddie had a wonderful spirit and we all loved him, and happily, he loved us! Such wonderful family memories...

When I think of Ed, I think of his warm smile, extended hand, and upbeat attitude. My deepest condolences to Pat and the entire family. Kathy and I will always be grateful that we were included in your 50th anniversary celebration. By the Grace of God, I look forward to seeing Ed again in Heaven
