Debbie Mandy, Matt, Randy, Susan and the rest of the family, I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart is filled with many good memories of Ed and all the time we spent on the many golf courses we played, all the time spent working on the auction committee, the time working together at NuWa and also where I first met him in 1965 working together during one of his summers away from school at the Buffalo Brick Plant. He was a good man and a good friend! You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

This was truly a shock when I received the call today! This is a tremendous loss for Chanute, Neosho County and SEK! Ed and I became friends many years ago. But became closer friends through an annual golf trip to Osage Beach, Mo. Our last FBI XII trip was in 2017. We are in the process of planning the fall 2018 FBI XIII trip. Ed was such a wonderful, intelligent, thoughtful and talented man. He was the essence of a remarkable 'gentleman." He was also so funny and simply a blast to share trips with. There are so many great memories. He will be dearly missed. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with all the family. Dan Creitz, Chief Judge of the 31st Judicial District
Deborah, Matt, and Mandy - Our thoughts and prayers go out to you in this time of sorrow. We know that he is singing and watching over you from above. He has joined your "group of guardian angels."

Debbie, sending you a hug and condolences. My memory of Ed was on the slow pitch team, a competor with a great laugh.
My heart breaks for you! My prayers are for comfort and peace! I haven't seen him in a long time, but ALWAYS think about him on our shared birthday! Virtual HUGS to all of you!
