Ed you will be missed by so many. I thank God for the time we shared at work, I remember your laughter and smile that would illuminate the room. Rest easy my friend.
Ed was an awesome man who will be sadly missed but always remembered. That laugh that smile. My condolences to his family.
This is remembering the life that you shared with Edward. I'm sending my deepest condolences to Gwen and children. Psalm 30:5. It says, "Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes in the morning. I know that sometimes that morning seems never seems to come but focus on those joyous memories in the meantime that you made together as a family. May God continue to strengthen you each day is my prayer. I am thinking and praying for all of you. Jacqueline
Ed was a wonderful boss and even more so as a person! I really was looking forward to coming back and working with him! My condolences to his wife and kids who he talked dearly about.
