    Our deep sympathy go to you Delores and your family. Having known Ed since he taught at Catholic Central I was especially pleased to have passed on a picture of Ed when he was coach of the school’s hockey team. I know that he was happy to see that connection to the past. He was a very sweet man that was interested in and cared for everyone he met.
    Beth and Jim Jean

    I am very glad I was given the opportunity to meet Ed, and Delores, even if only briefly. May the Holy Spirit draw close around your family and bring you comfort.

    Joan and I wish to express our condolences to Dolores and her family.

    Eddie was a great member of the Alhambra, a non-profit charity where he served as a member of its Chrity Committee. We will miss him.

    Eddie was a very warm welcoming soul in our Alhambra club house. He truly wanted to lean towards understanding, empathy and trust. Eddie had a warm heart and will be missed. I will personally miss our friendly heartfelt chats.
    To the family, you have lost an authentic “leader by example” who did not seek the limelight but instead worked in the background seeking no accolades. Eddie “God Bless your memory”!
    Condolences to all, Rick Vanos
