Brenda, I'm not sure you remember me but Ed worked with my husband Don & I at Prudential & he was also an usher in our wedding. I just saw Ed's obituary on Seacoast online & wanted to extend my sincere condolences for your loss. Don passed 5 years ago so I can share the sorrow you are experiencing. All of your years together leaves you with many great memories which you will cherish forever. My thoughts are with you.
