My heart is weary upon the news of Edwin. He was a grand man and full of life. He always was a quick wit and sharp on jokes galore.. 😂😂. He will truly be missed but he is now with his loving wife Cindy. She holds him now in her open arms. God bless both of you. 💞. Condolences to all of the family members and friends that knew and loved him. Keep your spirits up when you think of him and
have a laugh.
Sincerely
