Ed and I had been business acquaintances and then friends for almost 10 years. When he would call on me at the company I work for, it was always such a joyful reunion! When he was diagnosed with cancer, I too was battling breast cancer and we were our own support team. We didn't see too much of each other during our treatments, but I knew he was only a phone call or an email away. Many a time he would call and tell me how badly he hurt. Eddie, my dear friend, I thank God your hurt is over. I wish you didn't have to leave us, but you will forever be in all of our hearts and memories as one of the most wonderful men that ever walked the earth. My deepest sympathies go out to your family, atleast now he is at peace.

Ed, You are with God now. Everytime I hear a little thunder, I will know you are bowling strikes. Enjoy your Sasporillias. We will miss you.
