We only met Ed and his wife at the beautiful marriage of Pam and Randy Weaver. In
only a very short time is was apparent that they loved our Lord and each other. We were humbled to see such acceptance and love for family. For Ed´s family this is a very sad time. We embrace them and mourn. For Ed and Patty this is the promise fulfilled.
