Dear Friends in Christ -
Ed was a beacon of light. In spite of physical limitations that caused him to need to reside at Gardner Heights Care Center for 26 years, he always had a smile on his face and helped anyone he could. For his memorial service, Ed chose the Scripture passage "let the children come to me." Ed greeted life each day with childlike grace and joy. He loved all those he knew and welcomed even strangers as friends. We loved him, and he is sorely missed.
On Tuesday, February 5, at 10:30 a.m., there will be a Memorial Service for Ed at Gardner Heights. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.
Faithfully yours,
Rev. Janet+
