My condolences to Ed's family. Professionally, Ed helped many, including myself, navigate complex rules in the pension arena- and he always did it with great care and openness to help. He was the expert everyone turned to for help. Personally, he was a good friend and a humble, genuine person who always has the best intentions. I always requested him to be on my audit teams not just for his expertise, but because he made everyone on the team better. He will be greatly missed.
I had the honor of working with Ed on 403(b) plans, school districts, universities. He was always available to answer questions. He was my friend, “big brother”, mentor…I learned so much from him. After I retired he was still there to help me with situations. Our friendship continued after he retired. When my brother passed away Ed helped Mike and I get through the mounds of paperwork.
Betty Joe, He loved you and the girls so much. He talked about all of you often.
As I say good bye to Ed, He will always have a place in my heart.
Shannon
