I was fortunate enough to have Ed invite me into the brotherhood at the fly shop. This invite led to spending many enjoyable hours in the shop and on the water fishing the Lackawaxen and the Susquehanna River with Ed and the guys. Thanks Ed, you were an incredible teacher and mentor with a terrific sense of humor. You always kept us laughing. Tight line to ya.

I always enjoyed going to Ed's Fly show and talking flyfishing with Ed. We would sit in the backroom and talk about where we fished and what trout patterns were working at the time.
I even got to spent time with him at the "Fish-in" one year on the lt. Pine.
***** Rest in Peace" Ed.
