Edward Switala Obituary

Dear Friends and Family,
I want to thank you for the ongoing support and understanding you have shown to myself and the boys this past year. We think of Ed everyday and the pain of losing him will remain with us forever. But he did leave us all a legacy of special memories and we all will always think fondly of his smile and sense of humor with a great amount of love. Those who knew him loved him

To our wonderful daughter Stacey
Dad and I can't begin to tell you how much we will miss Ed. He was a very important part of our family. We will always be here for you and the boys. There are no words to describe the loss we feel
We love you more than anything
Love Mom

In the last seven years, I had the opportunity and privilege to work with Ed. In that time, I have become keenly aware that in any company (as in life), there are two types of leaders – those you don’t want to upset and those you don’t want to disappoint (the ideal leader).

Without question, Ed was the boss that his employees did not wish to disappoint. To me, he was also a friend whose edgy and wry sense of humor made weathering the most difficult times a breeze. I’m sure those of you who knew him can still picture that devilish grin on his face as he made some dry-witted wisecrack – one that crossed the line a way designed to make you laugh twice as hard.

He is very sorely missed but I take solace in recalling the many inside jokes that he and I shared over the years. Considering Ed’s enormous sense of humor, I’m quite certain that I am not the only one coping this way…

Stacey, It is hard to find the right words for sad times like this. I hope it gives you comfort to know that so many people have you and your family in their thoughts and prayers, even the girls from way back. Take care of yourself and your boys.

Stacey-

Our deepest condelences. Ed was a wonderful husband, father and friend. That smile of his, was truly one of a kind. A gentle and kind soul, was truly what Ed was. The true deep love the two of you had was very special, and anyone that was around the two of you, saw that.

With our love,
Steve and Cathy

Stace:

I am in shock and so, so sorry to hear about Ed's passing. What a horrible loss. His enthusiasm for life and especially for you and the boys was so deep. I remember some endearing moments over the past 20-or-so years -- Ed with that devious smile throwing fireworks in the lake outside your old apartment complex ...shooting the water up 30-feet in the air and scaring the you-know-what out of everyone. His huge smile during every minute of your wedding, his nice words when he'd answer the phone when I called for you. And his profound love for the boys evidenced through his commitment to the Cub Scouts, fishing trips (of course!) and general love of life. You and the boys are in my thoughts every minute. I love you so much.

Linda and Family,
We were so very sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. May your memories comfort you during this difficult time.
Genie & Ray
