Broken Chain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone;
for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide;
and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. 
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same;
but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
~Author, Ron Tranmer

We will always remember Ed's beautiful smile and warm presence. He always looked so happy to be in the company of you and your family. We feel fortunate to have met your dad and truly enjoyed being around him. We are thinking of you and sending love and strength.

When I think of Ed, I remember his big, bright eyes, warm smile and infectious laugh. He always had a great story to tell. A playdate for our kids at Kim's wasn't complete without a visit from Grandpa Ed. He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. He will truly be missed, but remembered for his life well-lived.

Kimberley,Brian,Abigail and Daniel,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.  Ed was such a special person and my good friend. He'll be missed but not forgotten.
Love,
Aunt Caron

I have so many fond memories of my dad, I'm having a hard time deciding which one I want to share. One of my most memorable was when I was in elementary school and it was going to be "Kite Day". I had told all my girlfriends that my dad would buy us all kites afterschool (of course without asking his permission first). Well, he was a good sport about it and took all 8 of us girls in his little Vega to the local store and bought us all kites. When we all went to the cashier to check out she asked my dad if all us girls were his children. He laughed and said yes! Gotta love my dad's sense of humor.

Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

I have many memories of my uncle Ed. I would visit during the summers with my aunt Kika and uncle Ed in San Diego. Where he was stationed in the Navy. He was a naval chief who trained young recruits. He had a firm way, but was kind and caring. And yes when Christmas came around he was the perfect Santa Claus, with his big blue eyes,and rosy cheeks. After my mother passed, uncle Ed and aunt Kika were there to help me and love and care about me. And make sure I was safe and happy. I will miss my uncle Ed. I believe he is with the Lord and his beautiful wife. Your family are in my prayers.

I remember when we were all so little and Uncle Ed was Santa Claus for several Christmas and we did'nt figue it out til 4 yrs. later. I remember when Uncle Ed would take us to the liquor store and buy candy.....when we all got new bikes, when we got Vespa's scooters......I loved it when our dads would hang out in the back yard in the garage and show us stuff to do. Welding, soldering, drawing, and of course got to taste a little beer from the bottle cap, when our moms weren't around!! I look forward to the day we get to see our parents, and extended family waiting for us in heaven ~ I'm happy to know Uncle Ed in God's arms today! I love and miss you always <3

I remember when your mom brought him over to my dads house and introduced him.  He was smiling way back then to.  His love will be your rock...   My prayers will be with you that you gain comfort.
