    Carol and family: our condolences to you and all who loved Ed. I have always treasured my friendship with Ed which goes back to public school days over 60 years ago. I think all the kids in Zurich were jealous of Ed riding around in the little homemade car that Len had made. Then came the BMW, one of Ed’s proud possessions – riding with his little dog Sparky in the side car. And of course there were our nights out in the great big Cadillac, music blaring as he loved The Rolling Stones. It was an honour to be part of your wedding and always fun catching up with Ed when I visited home. You and the kids and grandkids were his life and he always knew how much he was loved. Ann and I will hold his memory close, always and forever,
    Gary and Ann Geoffrey
