It is with great sorrow that I learned today of Cousin Ed's passing.  Largely because of the 20+ year difference in our ages, he never really got to know me as an adult, and I knew him primarily through a young boy's eyes.  But I always respected him as a smart, hard working, family man who dearly loved his wife Estelle and his son Michael. We exchanged email over the last dozen years or so and through this, I learned something of Ed's service to our country during World War II.  He was a teenaged cadet in an Army Airforce pilot training program when the government decided it didn't need more pilots. So he was handed a rifle and was sent to Europe where he participated in the Battle of the Bulge as an infantryman. Many years later, after I showed interest in his activities, he gave me a subscription to  his unit's newsletter, the Lightning, which I always read cover to cover.  As the years passed, less of the newsletter was dedicated to stories of the war, and more was given over to obituaries of the men who had served with Ed. It is very sad that Ed's is now amongst them.  While we didn't communicate as often as we might have, he was often in my thoughts.  I will miss him. My sincere condolences to the Baumstein family.
