Mary, my deepest sympathy to you. As Ed's roommate in the Navy it was my privilege to introduce you guys and be in your wedding. I know how much you loved each other from the first second you met and during your many years together. This is breaking my heart so I can only imagine how you're feeling. He was a good man who never had a bad thing to say about anyone. He loved you more than life itself and you guys lived life to the fullest both off and on the golf course. He was a happy man. When I look at his picture I can see it. You can be sure he has no regrets. He died peacefully with dignity and lived a long life. Those are the things to remember. If there's anything I can do, please let me know.

Mary, such a tragic loss. Our deepest sympathies go out to you. We have such fond memories of being together as neighbors in WV in 1995. After dinner “dessert” at Big Lots, Ed peacefully in the rocking chair with Jacqueline and Diana, Nemacolin, The Masters, golf in WV and MD, and Ed’s quick wit and humor. So sorry for your loss. Lots of love, Len and Celia

To My Brother, Your passing was a shock to us all. We have so many shared, precious and everlasting memories. Your sense of witty humor with surely be missed. From our humble beginnings with a loving mom and grandparents to your college degree, military service, your successful career and finally your happy retirement living in your beautiful home on the golf course with Mary; there were plenty of blessings! I have regrets of not being physically together more often than would have liked due to being distances apart, and not really comprehending how the years would fly by so quickly. May you rest in peace in heaven with our mom and family. Love Forever, Victor and wife, Beverly

Mary, I will miss seeing Ed at the fitness center - it seemed he was always there, diligently working out, day after day. Or, he was at the range, practicing his golf swing. His wit and sense of humor were always evident, especially when commenting on current affairs. He was a kind and gentle soul - and will be missed. Mary Shultz
