I knew Ed as a co-worker at GSA. He was always pleasant, even-tempered, willing to assist, and a pleasure to work with.

To the Stanek Family
Rest In Peace, Eddy. Our family will always remember the days of old when you and Larry were always with Bushia on 48th St. You were such a great person and was always there to help my grandmother. You were a part of our family and you became a great family man and I will always remember you for the kind and gentle man you were. Our prayers are with you now and there will be no more suffering. Our condolences to the Stanek Family.
