Ed graduated LSUNO. Ed reminded all of us that the world is a beautiful place, meant to be explored, that adventures are meant to be had and rules can be broken. Ed was a quiet, caring man who had great compassion for his pets, a love of history and a unique sense of humor. The family would like to thank Anvoi Hospice and his sitters who provided such loving care and compassion. A memorial service will be held at a later date. E.J.
