Ed was one of my closest friends. We shared so many stories, laughs and dances! How how loved to dance! He always had a line of women waiting to dance with him. I will miss him for so many reasons. And I used to always say to him that he needed to be a radio DJ cuz' he had such a sexy voice. RIP Ed! Toni, I have really enjoyed chatting with you.
