I am so sorry to hear of Ed's passing. Please accept my heartfelt condolences for your loss.

I had the both the opportunity and pleasure to work with Ed during the earlier years at Sikorsky Aircraft.

Ed was a great person and consummate gentleman as well as a superb engineer. He was a valued contributor during the golden years of aviation development.

May he rest in peace.

Very sad to hear of Ed's passing, though happy he was able to live such a long life. I knew him in the 90's so it's been a while, but he was always a pleasure to speak with, kind and friendly with a good sense of humor. I know you are loved and will be missed here, but are moving on to a better place of never ending peace. God Bless.

I mourn the death of Ed and pray he is in God's arms. I was a friend of his brother, Fr. Bob O'Leary, whom we still mourn and miss these two years on... They were brother-campers and Father Bob delighted in their adventures. I'm sure they are sharing their life in Jesus...

I worked for and with Ed for years at Sikorsky, and always enjoyed his quiet intelligence and thoughtful leadership. We will remember him as a fine engineer, a true gentleman and a strong contributor to Sikorsky Aircraft's golden age, when the projects he worked on, like the UH-60 Black Hawk, became strong successes that carry our soldiers safely every day. RIP Ed.
