He was a good guy with a very big heart. He was loved more than he realized. When the minutes go on in the day flashes of memories keep him close in my heart; closer than I realized they would. I couldn't even say good-bye to him. What they can't take away is the truth. I beleive with all of my sole there is truth in death...he knows now how dearly he is loved.

I was so sorry to hear about Ed's accident. I was a very good friend in high school and a few years after, but have fallen out of touch. I last saw Ed about fifteen years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with Mona and Ed's family. He was a good guy and will be missed.
