Mr. Ed was such a friendly and caring person. He was fun to be around and loved his family very much. He will be greatly missed.

Uncle Edgar was one of the most compassionate and caring people I have ever known. I loved hearing his stories and I honor him for the love he showed his family. He was a true child of God and a dedicated servant of Christ. His sweet smile will be missed by all of us that love him, but he is singing praises at the throne of the Almighty and he is at peace. Prayers for comfort to his children and to my mother and aunt, his sisters.
