Dear Anita and family,
I ran into a school mate last week who informed me of your great loss. I am so sorry to hear Ed passed away. I'm sure the loss is deep. Just wanted you to know I was thinking of all of you and you are in my prayers.
Love and blessings, Cathi Webb Collins

Our greatest condolences to the entire family. Ed always made me feel welcome at the Prelaz home. He also was known to make me chuckle. I know he will be missed.

Coach Prelaz was one-of-a kind. He influenced me tremendously in the four years that I served as a student trainer (1965-1969). He taught all his student trainers many lifetime lessons through athletic training (sports medicine). We were all blessed to be around such a fine man and a tremendous role model. To Anita and the family, our prayers are with you during this time. Thank you for sharing this wonderful man. All of the students that Coach touched are much better off simply because of his influence on our lives. God Bless all of you.
