'Gratitude is the memory of the heart.' (Jean Massieu) Feeling so damn grateful for the enormous impact you've had on so many lives the world over, for the laughter & love you have shared with us all, & for the memories we'll carry in our hearts forever.

To fond memories forever.

We've express my sentiments to Ed privately. Here, we want to thank all of you who offered tributes or who shared their comments and feelings. Our family appreciates your support and love.

Ed, this is a marvelous testimony to your many gifts to your heritage and to Milwaukee. Your work has been a blessing to so many. May we all treasure this gift of history and love. We are all so fortunate to know and love you, Ed.

With love

Big hugs to you, Ed, from the 'County Bronx'! So grateful to share how much you mean to so many of us. Thank you for sharing your hearty laughs, friendship, guidance, passion and your incredible life's journey. You are such a blessing, Ed xxooo

Wishing you the best, Ed. Yesterday, I finished my radiation treatments for prostate cancer at the U of Iowa and the doc is pleased with my progress. Thanks for your guidance and love to you and your family. Dick Murphy, Thailand XXI.

Only a small token for our admiration of a true heavyweight, first class all the way.
