Family will receive friends during visitation on Monday, May 11, 2020 from 5p.m. to 8p.m. A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Tuesday, May 12, 2020. Regretfully, the services will be by invitation only - as our nation deals with the current health crisis. Both visitation and service will be held at Shannon Rufe Snow Funeral Chapel. He will be laid to rest at Dallas Fort Worth National Cemetery.
In consideration and as a tribute to Ed, you are encouraged to share your thoughts and stories on the Shannon Rufe Snow Funeral Chapel webpage, as these messages will be printed in a memorial book for the family to have after services.
