My daughter Nikki and I were shocked and hurt to hear of the news. Nikki was a student of Mrs. Wallace. She remembers Mr. Wallace from her days as a student of Mr. Ny since she would see Mr. Wallace often around Mr. Ny's class. Nikki and I also had a big lost over a year ago. She lost her daddy, my hubby, and it was one of the hardest things we've ever had to deal with. We will pray for God's strength to help the entire family through this very difficult time. Our heart goes out to all of you, wife, children, mom and dad. May the Lord comfort you.

To the family of Ed Wallace,
I am so sorry for your tragic loss. Ed was a beautiful human being who was often a role model for so many. I hope you can always remember that image--as I am sure that he would want you to. His life ended on my birthday -- and I am sure that he met with the kindness of my mom, who was a beautiful and caring person, like Ed. I hope you can find some joy in the goodness that he did while briefly on this earth.
With love and blessings to you all,
Jan Hammond

My daughter attended North Main Elem. when "Mr. Wallace" was VP - he was always so friendly and encouraging to the children. He knew all their names, always had a smile or a joke or a kind word to share. We are so saddened to hear of his passing and offer our deepest sympathy and prayers to his family.
