I am so sorry for the loss of Edward, there is little I can do or say to ease your pain and suffering. The grief that his death has caused is indescribable. Som scripture I have found comforting John 5:28, Revelation 21:3 & 4, they give us the hope that our loved ones will be resurrected to life in a paradise earth. May the fond memories of Edward comfort you and may God grant you the abilityntomendure.

I am so sorry to hear about Ed. I worked with Ed for a lot of years and was a very good friend of his and his brother George and his dad. I will miss the Fong he was a brother in life and as a Union member in LU 80. We always had a good time working together and I will miss him.
