Edward Richard Bajas

Edward Richard Bajas, 57, of Toledo, passed away on Thursday, November 12, 2020, in Toledo, Ohio. Ed was born in Toledo, Ohio, to John and Irene Bajas on December 18th, 1962.

Eddie was so full of life and energy when he was young although we never got to spend as much time as i would have liked you could see he was full of kindness and goodwill and we will always be at a loss without him in our complete family. Our thoughts good wishes and prayers are with the family.

We crossed paths a while ago in a circle of mutual friends. It was good to reconnect and find we had more in common than we knew back at CCHS. I wish we had time for that breakfast at Schmuckers.

RIP Eddy. I will miss the calls just to say Hi.
My sympathy to The Bajas family.
Ed was a big man with a kind heart.
Our common ground was our love for music and food.
Sometimes he would call and say, "I'm buying lunch today."
He would show up with giant bag of everything from Tiger Bakery.
I know that all who knew Ed will have a story.
I will miss this fine man.

Eddie, Thank you for giving me my love of Music at a very early age. You and your Brothers were my heroes. Later, when I was old enough, it was an honor to share the stage with you. We had some great shows and some very stellar times. Much love and respect my Brother, my Neighbor, my Friend. I will miss you very much. Rest easy, Eddie. Until we meet again in that big ol' jam in the sky. Peace Comrade. Chez 11-16-20.

I will miss you dearly, we had so much fun back in high school, when you, John, and Jeff would jam in Jeff's basement, those were the days, and then you went on to Second Wind, you were just awesome. I will see you on again on the other side

I loved hearing from Ed in the morning. He'd call the show and tell me what music he was blaring that day to make the neighbors upset. Ran into him only once at a food truck even, but what a nice guy.

Jon/Eric, Sorry to hear about your loss. Met Eddie when we were both grade school kids, he was always an easy-going nice person even as a young kid. Haven't seen him in many years--a shock to learn of his passing. RIP Eddie
