My sincere condolences go out to the whole family, especially Devon and Joanna. In my few interactions with Ed, he was always kind and thoughtful. May he rest in peace, reunited with Lee.

So sorry to hear of Ed's passing. He was such a sweet man.

Devon and Joanna - my sincere condolences to both of you and your families on the passing of Ed. It's hard to imagine that I first met Ed about 45 years ago - he was always interested in what I was up to in school and outside of school, he was a steady presence at football and baseball games and concerts. I know he missed your Mom terribly after she died far too early - they are together again which hopefully provides you with some comfort (driving around in a brown Peugeot station wagon holding hands). All my best - Matt
