Aunt Dolly, Dave and Nancy-



I am so sorry about your loss. Uncle Ed had a great sense of humor, a smile that would light up a room and a great twinkle in his eye. He loved his family very much and would do anything for them. I haven't seen him since summer, 2001, but I'll never forget when Dad and I stopped by and visited and he talked fishing with Dad.
