Ed was a wonderful individual, full of life and one who never would let any challenge get him down. His sense of humor was infectious and he served as a role model to others on how to live life. A die hard St. Louis Cardinals fan (that should tell you something about his dedication as a human being), and his devotion to his family serve as paramount examples of the kind of individual he was. I am glad that he found the love of his life and was able to enjoy their partnership. I will miss my brother very much; I am saddened yet glad that his challenges are over, and I hope wherever he is now, he knows how…
My sincere condolences to his sons Kenn and Tad he was a remarkable man. My heart goes out to his grand daughter Kimberly, who he always from the day of her birth idolized . Always know you were his shining star.
