Ed was a loving and happy man. His
interactions with my children and
wife were always fun with fond
memories. The false teeth down the
toilet is imprinted in my mind.
Memories of Ed and his shenanigans
will endure all our years. Thanks
for the memories!

The one time I met Mr. Shea left a lasting impression. He was so kind and friendly that I felt that I had known him for years. I'm sure he will be greatly missed.
