Hello Joan, Keith and Jim It was with sadness that we heard the news of Ed's passing. Keith and Jim you could not have said it better in your tribute to your Dad. My family and I also have fond childhood memories. Just last summer I had an opportunity to visit with your Mom and Dad again and as always it was a pleasant visit. Your dad gave wonderful hugs and was a genuinely nice man. I also enjoyed his quirky emails. Please accept our deepest sympathies. Denise and family - Posted by: Denise Byrne (Family) on: Jul 12, 2005
