He was a fun and interesting man who did a great job of handling huge challenges he lived with every day. He was a good and faithful friend. He was very proud of his children and grandchildren. He was good to Marima who allowed him to have as much freedom and activity as he could over for many years. I will miss him.

I knew Ed from New Life Baptist Church in Harvest, AL. I enjoyed getting to know him and watching his spiritual growth. He will be missed by many.
