Mr. Ed, you were a joy to talk with. I looked for you at all the games. I always asked, "How do you think Michael and Jordan are doing?...What can he do to improve?...What is wrong with our Coach!!?" Your advice was always true, honest and funny. Loved getting those cards with the team logo, all the kids names and numbers. The're in my scrapbooks and will always remember, Mr. Ed made these. I will greatly miss having that friend at the baseball games.
