There are no words to take away the pain of losing you. I always looked forward to you coming home to Ct. To see your smile and to hug you. You were and still are a shining star. God please take care of my nephew he was the best. I love you Eddie and always will and you will always be in my heart. Aunt Bev.

Dear Eddie
We can't imagine life without you. You were the love of our life. No more phone calls or coming home from Ohio. Your beautiful smile that you always had and the spark in your eyes.
Love forever

One of my earliest memories was crawling down Memere's hallway speaking baby-talk with Ed. My first conversation in life was with Ed. I remember his smile, and how he understood me.
Our thoughts, prayers, and love are with my family.

I met Ed several times when he came back to the area to visit friends/family and was so saddened to read of his death. He was such a pleasant man with an ease and comfort about him that he stands out in my memory. I am so sorry for his family and friends who are grieving his loss. My hope is that, by surrounding yourself with those who love you, you can move through your grief.

He is in my prayers and if he remebered Herby , He is with him in heaven ..
I am here for you as I am homebound , but if you care to talk or visit I am only a stone throw away..My Heart and Prayers go out to all of you .
May He rest In Peace!

Dearest Barbara, Ed, Jeanne & family,
Words can't begin to tell you how very sorry I am for your loss. I remember Eddie when he was just a small boy running around his grandparents yard on Alden Street. What a lovely young man. Love and hugs go out to you in this very sad time.
