We are sorry to hear of Edec's passing. Having known him for over 50 years in "Back of the Yards" and beyond. Not being able to make the wake or funeral, we wish our condolences to the family. Angelo & Bernie Roccasalva also here in Florida and unable to see Edec off in his final journey, where we will all meet again someday. GOD Bless.

Dear Gene,

We're sorry to here about Eddie. My wife and I are in Texas visiting our children when we received word. We just talked about Eddie at Sugar's wake. We'll say a prayer and I'll call you when I return home.
