Deepest Sympathy and Condolences to Ed Wade Family. Ed and I worked together at NYC Transit Authority in the Safety Department. He was my a very close Colleague and very dear Friend. He and his wife Dottie were two of the Nicest People you would ever want to meet. Ed and I called each other Bro I am Heart Broken at each of their Passing. I pray that their Souls and Spirits are once again united and that they will Rest and Rejoice in the Kingdom Of Heaven Now and Forever More. God Bless You Bro Love You Bro.
