Lynda, Christina, Curtis and Zachary,
I am so sorry to hear of your dear husband and father's passing. I have vivid memories of you, Lynda and Ed being at all of Christina's soccer and lacrosse games...Ed always videotaping what seemed like every play...what a wonderful gift he gave by bringing their childhood games to life for ever and ever. I'm sure they will have all the more meaning now and forever... Please know my heartfelt prayers are with you all as you go through this difficult time.

Fondly,

Marianne Joyce

Dear Christina and Mrs. Holland,

Words can not express what I feel for you and your family. Christina having walked in your shoes 21 years ago (in more ways than one), I just want you to know that the pain and sorrow you are feeling will become easier to bear. Remember the good times and know that your father loved you and that you loved him (and I am sure he knew that under any circumstances). Mrs. Holland you and your family are in our prayers and please know that we are here for you.

May God bless you.

Love
Karen and Al Jones and family

Dear Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Ed was a very caring individual. Our family has many great memories of Ed and we hope that your family receives comfort in the life that Ed lived. We are thankful and blessed to have been around Ed during all the hockey and baseball seasons. The last time Paul spoke with Ed on the phone, Ed was proudly speaking about all the children. He loved his family very much. We will miss Ed.

Lynda:
We are all shocked. Jason especially had a great time talking to Ed recenty over Christmas break at a Heights basketball game. It was always fun hearing how the kids were fairing in college. We will miss those great conversations. If you need anything, do not hesitate to ask. Hoping the great memories will get you through. Love "The Kelce's"
