"Ed and I would connect when we were young boys. Our mothers would meet in the summers for several days in Sparta at our grandparents house. Ed, cousins Bob and Ron Muraski, and I would have many adventures around Sparta. Ed was a fun loving and genuine guy. Will miss his presence, but some great memories. Pete Holmlund"
