Sorry to hear of Ed's passing. He was a kind and gentle soul who loved his family, took good care of his mother and got a big kick out of lovingly teasing his nieces and nephews when they were little. He spent many happy hours playing cards at Anna and Al's house on weekends and he loved his pets. Rest in peace, Ed.
