Dear Aunt Marion and family, I know this is a difficult time for all of you. Uncle Ed was such a funny, interesting, thoughtful person. All of the McQuaid kids were lucky to have him as a wonderful uncle. His ability to repair, restore or fix almost anything was simply amazing. Marion, I am so grateful for all of the friendship and support that you and Ed have given to my mom all of these years. Uncle Ed will be in the thoughts and prayers of all of our extended family. Much love to you~Joanne

Marian and Kids,

It was truely a pleasure taking care of Ed while at Methodist. Every now and then a Patient is considered very special and Ed was one of those people. I hope the good Lord has Ed close by so he doesn't miss anything Ed has to say. He was truely a special guy in my short time knowing him.

We remember Ed's friendship and willingness to make Pine to Palm a great place to spend our winters. Ed was always one of the first people Larry would see on his way down to the hall for coffee and there was always a friendly smile and "hello". A great way to begin the day!



He will be missed.

Dear Aunt Marian and Family~



Please know that our family is grieved by losing a wonderful uncle. Doug and I and our two girls have so enjoyed the years of knowing him and having him visit Minnesota. Our last few visits were so precious and we have photos of Aunt Marian and Uncle Ed with Courtney and Libby. Thanks for all the love you have shared with our family over time. We have so appreciated the relationship with you. Much love and sympathy,



Doug, Amy (McQuaid), Libby and Courtney Swanson
