We extend our sincere condolences of learning of Ed's passing. We knew Ed for many years through his work. Ed was very courageous on every front. He never complained, but soldiered on no matter what. His great sense of humour will be remembered. Randy[Standard Auto Glass] and Sharon Saunders[Dental office]

Please accept my deepest sympathies on Ed's passing. I met Ed many years ago working for my sister (Judy) at ICS for summer leave fill-in. Ed always had a joke or funny comment to pass on. In later times I'd run into Ed at Lancaster Mall and other locations and he always remembered me. He genuinely asked how I was and never offered a complaint even though he was very ill at the time. Ed fought the good fight and I will miss and remember his laughter and comical comments always. My sincere condolences to the family. John Wright
