Ed was such a wonderful friend to my father, Jack Yeager, and also to my mother Barbara. They enjoyed many dining experiences together. Ed frequently cooked for my Dad, which I found very cute. He was always kind and funny to visit with when my daughter and I were around. He will be deeply missed by my family.

Eddie and JT, We were very saddened to hear about your dad's passing. My own mother passed away just 3 weeks ago, so I know alot of the feelings you are experiencing at this time. I apologize for not attending the funeral, but I am not quite ready to attend any funerals for a while. I hope you understand. JT, I'd like for you to know, I have many,very fond memories of you and your entire family, in some very happy times. You were always a favorite of mine. We will pray that everyone in your family will feel God's arms enfolding all, helping to give strengh when it might be needed most. Our deepest sympathy, Tom Proctor

Dear Mr. Roach and Family,
I'd just like to express how deeply sorry I am to hear about the loss of your brother. There are no words to provide comfort at a time like this other than to simply state you are loved and in my prayers. If you need anything, and I mean anything at all, please just ask. May God bless you and your family.
Sincerely,
Jedd Flowers
