My most sinsere condolences to all of Ed's Family. I was a "part of your family" as Ed and I go way back to the Florida State Trooper days and his law enforcement career. We were "brother's in blue, Brother Masons, Shriners, Jesters," but most cherished, we were Brothers of the heart and soul. He is and will be missed by us all. GOD bless all of you, I know how he loved each and one of you!

Ed was a remarkable guy and will be missed by many. He was a true example of still waters running deep, and without fanfare or accolades was an advocate for the voiceless and vulnerable. As will others, I too will miss him greatly. "Sister" Mary

I was shocked and saddened to learn of Ed's passing after returning from Tennessee and hasten to send my deepest condolences to the family he so deeply loved. They will miss him so much! Ed was one of a kind, a real gentle man in every sense of the word. He served and loved his country in a deeply moving way. I enjoyed my tenure working with and for him. He was so energetic, and had a keen sense of humor. He was so positive in nature and we will all miss his smiles! He will be sorely missed. I can rejoice that he is in heaven with Linda and all those who went before, rejoicing and praising God. What a reunion we all will have one day. In the meantime I will miss him terribly.
