Our deepest sympathy to Eddie’s family at his going home to God. He was one of the sweetest and kindliest men we have ever encountered. He had a word and a smile for everyone and was a faithful attendee at our Monday night prayer and communion services. And his example of love and fidelity to his beloved Alice was a tremendous example to us all. We will miss him greatly. Our lives were the richer for knowing him, and now we are the poorer for his passing.
Eternal rest and everlasting joy, united once again with his beloved Alice.

He spoke highly often about the two of you, especially Monday nights when I would talk to him after the prayer meeting. He looked forward so much to attending! Thank you both for your kind words!
I am sad to hear of Ed’s passing. He was So kind to my father Rocco, they worked together for decades at G&O and were great friends until the day my father passed away. May the wonderful memories of him sustain you and bring you peace.
