Dear Eddy(Wiz)Wisniewski Family,

I sincerely feel bad that I was unable to pay my respects in person due to a prior family committment. I am truly shocked and saddened by Eddy Wiz's passing, and my sympathy and prayers go out to all of you. Eddy Wiz was my first real boss, and like I've said to him personally on more than one occasion, I attribute a lot of my successes in my life to his past guidance, knowledge and geniune caring for people. Some of my life's best memories were the ones that took place while working for Eddy Wiz at the old Manufacturers Bank. We had a lot of laughs! I, along with everyone who was lucky enough to be aquainted with Eddy Wiz, will truly miss him. God bless.

Dear Dianne, Eddie, Patti, Carl & Families:

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I have fond memories from my childhood of "Uncle" Eddie from your many visits to the Knipp gals. He was a very sweet man who loved his family so much. My family and I will hold you all in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,
