Beth,
I’m so sorry to hear about your dad. I had the honor and pleasure to work with him at the ETC for many years. He was my mentor and I sure did learn allot from him. He will be missed.

To all Ed’s family: We are so sorry to hear of our long time Aetna friend’s passing. He was a fixture at Aetna’s Bingo night for many years and knew all there was to know about it. We enjoyed talking orchids and he always brought us snips of his Lilly of the Valley when they bloomed and smelled so sweet. Of course he often brought his favorite twisty cane too…I loved that cane. The Bingo ladies loved him and will miss him. I will too.

So sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. He will be missed around the Cherry Hill neighborhood where everyone enjoyed seeing him walking Blue. He always had time to speak with neighbors and friends. We spoke of Beth once in awhile because she went to Downes school with my sons. He was such a nice person.

So sorry to hear that your Dad passed away. He was always so happy and active. The only time I think I remember him sitting was when he was driving his truck. If you need anything or want to talk, I think my email is attached to this.
