My sincerest condolences to Annette, Robert and Mark and their families. One of my favorite memories of Ed was at county 4H camp up at Chris Park N of Tamarron resort. Some of the girls in our 4H club came running into camp screaming BEAR!!! Ed and Gary Weber took off in the direction the girls had come from and returned laughing, saying it was a "whistle pig". Years later I found out it was indeed a bear. No wonder Ed and Gary were snickering as we finished setting up our camp! Good times were had those years at county camp.
