Oh so many many memories of Ed and Janie! Ed was an amazing friend to all he met. He and my first husband, Terry Fiedler were "brothers" at heart. Ed brought a spark of life, fun and generosity to every person he met. Will be greatly missed. Linda

Whenever our paths crossed over the last 20 years, 'Fast Eddie' always expressed his friendship with an enthusiastic smile. We enjoyed his company with good memories and his zest for enjoying life. RIP

A true Durango icon! Fast Eddie would give you the shirt off his back. No one was a stranger to Eddie; only friends he hadn´t met just yet. The good man loved life, he loved Janie and his family forever, he loved his seemingly unlimited group of friends, and he loved light and laughter. Eddie was a true gift to all he encountered, and his inner strength always endured. What a man! Janie, sending you condolences and hugs; sharing in my heart with you absolutely precious memories.
With love,
Dav

One of the kindest gentlemen I have known!-His quest for life showed in his ever present desire to make everyone smile, laugh, and feel welcome. One of my MANY memories of Eddie was his passionate support of Durangos winter carnival called Snowdown. He and good friend Terry Fiedler(RIP) were always the welcoming front door crew to the Follies Gala, dressed in his special coat exhibiting every Snowdown button.
My Sympathies to Jane and family-RIP "fast Eddie"

What a great guy! I've known Ed for 50 years, and he has been a piece of Durango's Heart. He contributed some great histories for the Purgatory Ski 50th Anniversary book. One of the kindest men in town.
