So sorry for the loss of Big Ed. We were friends for 30 years although the last 15 years or so we drifted apart. Big Ed and Dee were very special people that I am proud to have made many memories with. They are together again with many of their friends in heaven

I didn't personally know Ed but my brother Jim Jordan (RIP) ran with him. So sorry about your loss. Jim and Ed I am sure will meet up again. God Bless you all.

Big Ed and Dee were our son's "other parents" ... he and Eddie are still best buds. I am sorry to hear of Ed's passing. My heart aches for Eddie, Alex and John.
