We loved Ed! What a remarkable individual who selflessly cared so passionately about others and the environment. Loved his sense of humor and passion about topics that interested him. I will miss all his stories!! Grateful to have known such an inspirational soul. RIP ED!

Ed was a dear friend and a gentle giant. Great sense of humor, wry wit very intelligent. I enjoyed his company as we sippep Manhattans at DaVinci's and other locations on our adventures. Ed and I went steelhead salmon fishing many times in Oregon and Washington. Chucker hunting in Owyhee desert in Oregon and other places. I cherish the time I have spent with Ed and Charlotte and he's hunting dogs over many years. Rest in peace my friend. Dave Roylance
