Dear Mitzen family. My heart goes out to each and every one of you. You did not know me but I knew all of you and how much you all meant to Ed. He was a dear friend of mine. I am so sorry. I have e-mailed him and never received a response. I knew something was wrong, if only I knew and I could have seen him in the hospital. I will miss him dearly, would love to speak with one of the daughters to find out details and if I could see him in cemetary.

I meet Ed when I was about 11, when he became friends with my mom. He always encouraged me and my brother (Leo) that we could anything. He was truly a good man. He will be missed by our entire family.

To The Mitzen Family

Ed was a dear person to me. He helped me to go back to school and care for my children after my divorce. I always loved him and will always cherish our time together. He sang at my daughter's wedding and has been a great role model for my son. We will miss him.

Dear Family Members of Eddie Mitzen:

Eddie was my first boyfriend when I was 12 years old. Our relationship turned into a great friendship up until the time he entered the final stage of the hospital. He shared many personal and confidential matters that arose over the years in our lives. Our friendship continued throughout the years. I don't think anyone understood him as well as I did. Most people live a lifetime and cannot ever say that they had a friendship as we did.

Unfortunately, after I read his obituary today, with deep regrets, I could not attend the service in time. He will be greatly missed.

To My Dear Cousins and Aunt Marilyn and Uncle Neal, I have fond memories of Uncle Eddie and remember the great times my Dad had with him every year down in FL. Dad loved him so much. They had quite a brotherly bond. I am so glad that he made the trip to NY to attend our wedding. I will miss him greatly. Much Love, Sheila

To the entire family, I'm so sad to learn of my 'Uncle' Eddie's death and am thinking of you all at this time. My dad loved him like a brother and I remember how happy they would be on their visits together. He was always so fun and lovely and kind and warm to me too. With love, Sari and family

It is 3:00 in NJ and my thoughts and heart are with you as you put your beloved father and brother to rest. Eddie was very special in my life from the age of 16. I loved him and his love for all people and his zest for life. May his beautiful memory comfort you in the days to come.

Please accept my condolences to the entire family. One of my personal favorite memories of all time involves Eddie, when he bought the place in Bay Colony.We talked about it at ThanksGiving and went looking right after that. It was the first Real Estate sale I ever made and we had a blast looking at different properties. I bet he and my Dad are already up there kibitzing and having fun.

Love,

Miles
