Our sympathy and condolences to the Hollins family. We have many good memories of Ed and Lea. They were very welcoming when we moved into Shell Point in Holmes Beach and became very good friends. Being invited to his "mens´ only´" Limburger cheese and Florida sweet onion sandwich luncheons was an honor and loads of fun. Rest In Peace good friend.

Always a pleasure to see him and his wife when they were out at restaurant and always said hi when they saw me. My late husband and I knew him and family for a few years and had a few laughs together. My condolences to the family

Lea...It is with a sad heart that I read of Ed's passing. The two of you were the sweetest couple I had the pleasure of meeting since moving to Fla. I often think of all the laughs and chats we had when you came to the American Legion. Rest In Peace Ed. You will certainly be missed by many people.
