To the family of “oldFSE”. May God shine His love on each of you and stir up the memories that Mr. Ed left with you. Even tho we never met face to face, I still counted him as a friend. We chatted for almost 10 years and even tho we were miles apart, I knew he loved the Lord and he was a Gentle Man as well as a Gentleman. My heart is sad that I will not received another Ed email, but, I rejoice that he is now with his saviour and doesn’t hurt anymore.
God Bless each of you,

So sorry to learn that Ed had passed away. We visited with him quite awhile when he was last here. Years ago, everyone in the office had to call his home to hear his message. We only left him one but it took three different calls! I will truly miss his yearly visit that started in 1986.

My prayers and condolence are with you. You and I will miss him greatly. He loved you very much. Was always telling me about you when we emailed or he got to come to Tennessee for a reunion. He was a great cousin.

We were sorry to hear about Ed passing away. I had talked to him In Nov. when we were planning our high school class reunions. He always came to the reunions if at all possible,but he told me that he could not come to this one because of health reasons.
I so enjoyed talking to him and reminising about the good old days at Fulton High School. He was such a good friend and could always make you laugh.
He will be greatly missed.
I work with Wanda Overton here in Knoxville. I never met Ed, but I know of him through Wanda and he must have been a very special man. Our deepest sympathies go out to you during this time. We pray that God will wrap His arms around you so tightly as you go through this difficult time.

All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. Your father and grandfather loved each of you greatly and spoke often of you with a lot of love in his heart. He has been a great friend for almost 50 years and I am going to miss him beyond words. I cherish those tall tales he was so good at telling. I couldn’t wait until the next phone call to see what new tale he would share this time. He made me laugh at a time in my life that I thought I couldn’t laugh. He had a lot of love to give and I am so glad that he shared some of that with me. May the Lord comfort each of you in your time of sorrow.
With my Love & Prayers
Wanda (Reynolds) Overton
I am verry sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. When he was oncall you knew your voice mailbox would be full from his extended observations about his repair calls, yet you would listen and laugh all week. My thoughts are with you.

He visited us while I was stationed in South Georgia. We have remained in contact all through the years. He was not only a cousin but a good friend.I know your will miss him . God Bless.
