I got to know Ed through visiting the Kanawha Care Center. My dad is also a resident there. A couple times we had Ed sit outside with us while we visited with Dad, too. I enjoyed his great sense of humor and warm stories. He always made me chuckle. I am so glad our paths crossed and that he is now resting peacefully in a better place. God Bless you, Ed.
