Mr. G was a father figure to me growing up. I will always remember the lessons he taught me and Chris...right down to making sure we knew how to change a flat tire, or not to speed over a hill in case police are on the other side. His quiet demeanor left a lasting impression.

Lorene and family,

My deepest sympathy on the loss of your husband,father, grandfather. I know will you cherish the many wonderful memories of him. Take comfort in knowing that he is up in Heaven with all his friends and family--in fact, I'll bet Ed was one of the first in line to greet him! Love, Joan Heller
