On behalf of the St. James High School Alumni Association and his 1965 classmates, I extend our deepest sympathies and prayers on your loss. The Alumni Association will remember Ed at their annual Memorial Mass. May he rest in peace!
I served as a post commander in Aston as Ed served as commander in Upper Chichester and Ed and I served as deputy district commanders at the same time. I also grew up in Linwood. Ed was always a gentleman. May he rest in peace. I would have been at Ed’s service but I now live in South Carolina.
Our sincere condolences RIP Ed
