Marsha and Selena, I was so very sorry to hear of Ed's passing. He was such a nice and fun person, and I do have such fond memories of when we were neighbors in Carmichael when Lance and Selena were little. My heart and my prayers go out to you both in your time of loss.

Ed was a great guy who had a good life with many friends and lots of good days out on the water he loved. Many of us in the fly fishing community will miss him.

I worked with Ed as an engineering consultant with the Department of Fish & Game and the Delta Levee Subventions Program. Ed was a gentleman and a great colleague. Ed was a very honest man and a magnificent steward of the environment. I do not know Ed's family, but I am certain they are wonderful people due to their association with Ed. My prayers are with you, take care and be well

Ed's work with Fish and Game resulted in him working with staff from the Department of Water Resources as part of the Delta Levee Subventions Program. I met Ed that way and I attended his retirement celebration at his home in Carmichael. He was a very nice man and he'll be missed. May he rest in peace.
