So sorry to hear about Ed's passing. Our condolences to Jan and her family of children and grandchildren. We always enjoyed talking to him at Fatima Church and Fatima School activities. He was a kind, fiendly knowledgeable person.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise found in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring you some comfort. Knowing that there is a future for those ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to your family. My dad, Harry Durham spent a lot of years hiking and backpacking and talking on the phone with Ed. They were kindred spirits and enjoyed the outdoors and sharing their philosophies of life. The Durham family will keep you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Ed was such a sweet, sweet guy. I first met him at Shell Development and he so enjoyed his work while there. Later, I saw him at Lady of Fatima and we would always talk after mass. A truly delightful and gracious man who will surely be missed. My heartfelt condolences to the family. Keep his memory near and dear to all your hearts to get you through this sad time in your lives.
