It is with deep sorrow that we say farewell to my father's best friend and the man who along with his wife were great friends to my parents for almost half a century.

I personally knew Ed Munves not only as a business associate but also as a friend - someone I could always go to for guidance and sage advice.

Rest In Peace. You are missed.

Norma and Ed our dear friends since 1957 shared so many happy times socializing, vacationing and being supportive of our respective families. It is with deep sorrow I say goodbye. Yet, I am thankful for the many years of friendship we shared.
