To Marie Joe and Monica,
I am very sorry to hear about Ed's passing away. I really enjoyed working with him at Sensormatic, he really taught me many things as I was fresh out of Technical school. He put me through the Ed Myers school of hard knocks. He was a good friend and mentor to me. You guys are in my thoughts and prayers.

I'd like to pass along my prayers and sympathy to the Myers family. Ed and I not only started our first day of work together with Sensormatic in Chicago, but we also shared the same birth date (Ed was a bit older, but we never talked about it!). I could always count on Ed to give me a call on our work anniversary and on our birthday every year to reminisce on the 30+ years that we knew each other. "Watch your swinger!" always the parting words in our conversations. Ed was a great guy and will be missed by many. I had a cold one in his honor last night!

Sorry for your loss. Loved working with Ed at Sensormatic. Times he was a pain in the ass but it was always out of concern for doing the best job possible. He was such a feisty guy with great energy & friendly as hell. The whole time we worked together I could always depend on Ed. I will always remember when he taught me K.I.S.S. - (keep it simple stupid). I have shared that moment with my kids whether they like it or not. He will be missed!!

I knew Ed my entire life. We even shared the same birth date, but Eddie was one year older than me. Our parents were best friends, and his mother's sister married my mom's brother. As kids, our families were always together, us kids playing while our parents played cards. Eddie married a great gal and friend of mine from our old neighborhood, Marie. Over the last couple of years I have seen Ed's brother Bob down here at the Lake of the Ozarks where I live and had a great time talking about the old days and how we all felt like family. You are all in my thoughts during this difficult time.
