I worked for ED for a number of years off and on, he was not only a great guy to work for but with.he taught me how to hang siding, something I still love and do everyday... I will never forget him and often share fond memories of him with my friends. My condolences to all of his family, friends, and loved ones
John and Peggy, so very sorry to hear of the passing of your brother and brother-in-law. I was out of town and just saw the notice. Our sincere sympathies to the whole family. Dean and Janice
Ed was my best friend when I grew up in Hiawatha. I remember after he moved over to Edgewood Rd in Cedar Rapids I used to ride my bike from Hiawatha over to see him. I haven't seen him in over 40 years but still remember all the good times we had. I retired from the Marines in 1992 and then the sheriff's department in 2010. I then moved back to Hiawatha in the same place I grew up. His house is still right next door. I attempted to look him up but could not find him in Cedar Rapids. I sure wish I would have tried a little harder. My heart goes out to his family, Mom, Brothers and sister. Someday I will all follow and see him again.

We are so saddened for our loss of Ed. There is an emptiness in my heart and mind that only his memories now fill. I remember his passion for life and willingness to help. I remember the time there was no one else to turn to and he was there for me, with a helping hand or caring thought. I miss him but know in my heart we will be together again.

I did not know Ed well, but his children have been a part of our family since they were in elementary school. My heart and prayers go out to them and the rest of the family at this difficult time.
