To the family of Edward J. Mulcrone, We are deeply sorry for your loss of your husband, father, grandfather, and great grandfather, but most of all he was the great inspired to the people of Hometown. I remembered him walking down the sidewalk with his little english bulldog, could not remember the name of the dog. But now Mr. Mulcrone will alway be walking with his dog in heaven until you will meet him. Our prayers are with you and your family.

Ed and the entire Mulcrone family--We are truly sorry for the loss of your dad (husband, grandpa, and great grandpa). We will always remember him as a guy with a great big smile, a hearty laugh, and a great head of hair (not to mention, a lot of barbed wire). Our thoughts and prayers are with you and may your fond memories comfort you.

DearMary Ellen and Family,
I'm sorry that I won't be able to be present for the wake and funeral but I will say Mass for Ed on Sunday morning here in Tampa.
I will always remember him as a wonderful man who lived life fuly and well. I'm sure the "stories" are being told all over the South Side and beyond.
My Mulcrone brick sits prominently in my den...a lasting rememberance of family pride and his generous spirit.
Blessings,
Fr. Tom
