On behalf of the entire staff of Downhome Publishing Inc., we extend our most heartfelt condolences to Ed’s wife, Marion, and the rest of his family. Ed’s razor-sharp wit and unique perspectives on life will be sadly missed by our staff and our readership. More than a talented writer, Ed was an incredible person to work with and an inspiration to all who knew him. May his loved ones find comfort in his incredible legacy, which lives on.
We are standing here trying to figure out what to say. We are literally without words. Ed, you will be missed. Much of my youth was influenced by your vibrant outgoing nature and love for the countryside and family. Since I have known you, you have made me feel a part of your family. In a way, your family is an extension of my own. You will be greatly missed.
Love and condolences to all.
