Dear Nancy & Family, We will surely miss Ed on Henry St.! A better neighbor there never was! He kept our basement from flooding more than once & helped with so many things, including some help with a few Gaelic words that I didn't understand! We we're always welcome @ the Mannix table for some wine or tea & we shared our kids growing up together. It doesn't get any better than that! Love,

Dear Nancy and Family,

May all of the wonderful memories of Eddie bring smiles and comfort to you during the days ahead. Eddie would have loved the service for him at Saint Edna Church - it was touching and beautiful with humor to help the pain of sorrow. I think everyone of us has at least one Eddie story! Love, Judy

Ed, Pat, Noreen,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you now. If we can all strive to live like Ed did, we will all be fulfilled. I only knew Ed for 10 years, but it feels like I knew him my whole life, the sign of a very special person. Your father will be missed on the football sidelines, but we know he will be watching over us.
