I want to say thank you to Mr White as he was my English teacher my senior year at PN-G in 1975 and he rectified an injustice by my sophomore English teacher who gave me a zero on an assignment while I was in the hospital which lowered my grade for the entire year. I remember your kindness and willingness to believe me, bless you.

We are thinking of all of you during this time and are sending our love. We had the pleasure of meeting and sharing a table at Casey and Billy's wedding with Ed and Betty. We know he will be missed by all. He was a very kind and sweet man, exactly what Kathy has always described.

Everyone who knew Ed loved him for his gentle good nature, his kindness, and his wonderful sense of fun. He was a very special man, loved by his students and co-workers alike. Above all, he adored his family and always spoke of each of you with such love and devotion. We were blessed to have him in our lives. In loving sympathy, Cheryl
