In retirement Ed enjoyed spending time with his family and friends, playing music and singing in his beautiful baritone voice which was his lifetime passion.

God saw you getting tired

And a cure was not to be,

So He put his arms around you,

And whispered, "Come to Me".

With tearful eyes we watched you,

And saw you pass away.

Although we loved you dearly,

We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,

Hard-working hands at rest.

God broke our hearts to prove to us,

He only takes the best.

We will always carry your memory in our hearts.
