If there were more people in this world like Edward Minor, this would be a much better world. I had the privilege of working for Ed for many, many years and I learned a lot from him. What a great joy to have worked for such a wonderful man and family. My deepest sympathy to Lucy, Jennifer, Joey, Judy and all his beautiful grandchildren.

Ed has been a part of my professional life for as long as I can remember, and I learned a lot about what makes a successful CEO from him - he never failed to challenge, he never failed to appreciate. And his deep and enduring love for his family outshone everything. He will be sorely missed. My deepest sympathies to you, Lucy, Jennifer and Judy, and his most beloved grandchildren. Eileen Trost

Though I have not seen Ed in many years, I will always remember him as a consumate gentleman and someone who always took an interest in others. Whenever our paths crossed, he always took the time to ask about my life and my family. My heart goes out to Lucy, Jennifer, Judy and the grandchildren.
