So sorry for your loss may you find peace and comfort in the words spoken at 2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4" Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God

I was so sad to learn of Edward's passing. Although we had not seen each other in years, I often think of and treasure the memories of all the fun adventures we had. The world has lost a bright light. May God comfort you during this difficult time and the memories of him be with you always.

I'm thinking of your family. I first met Edward when I joined the third grade class at Trinity Cathedral. He was always the life of the class--such a funny, quick-witted guy. I am so sorry for your loss--may your memories of him comfort you at this time.

My breath was literally taken away with the news of Edward?s passing. My deepest condolences to you all--Rachel, Celeste, and Andrew--who Edward felt protective of and who he loved so dearly. Fiercely intelligent, immensely creative, quick-witted, handsome and dapper, Edward was born with so many gifts. These gifts combined with his warmth, charm, candor, compassion, and dramatic sensibilities endeared Edward to all those who called him friend. Our families have been intertwined for as long as I can remember and so there are memories too numerous to recount. One poignant memory, especially for me as a mother, is of my mother, Doris, acknowledging and encouraging Edward?s creativity from as far back as grade school. With a twinkle of mischievousness in his eye that met mine, Edward and I enjoyed so many adventures together in numerous states where our paths would cross throughout his years on this earth. I am devastated to lose my friend, who I loved deeply and unconditionally. May all mourners find solace, as I am, in the many, many delightful memories that demonstrate that Edward was a blessing.

Edward was a colleague and a friend with amazing talent, warmth and love, who was forever reminding me how a bit of southern charm could always save the day. It was my honor and pleasure to work for twenty years with such a creative, passionate, and knowledgeable fashionista. He will be sorely missed.
