Our deepest condolences to Brenda and the family. We were saddened to read of Ed's passing so soon after leaving the Gilford home. A great neighbour and a wonderful man who was always a pleasure to talk to. Our thoughts are with you through this difficult time.

Eddie and I were in Public & HighSchool together. I really enjoyed my time with Ed. I will always remember the band he put together with a couple of classmates during the Beatlemania time. At a recent BDHS reunion a few years ago, Eddie told me how awful that band was, but at the time, they were “HOT”
I have many good memories of Eddie. So Long my friend!
My condolences to the family.

Pauline and I are so sorry to hear of Ed's passing. Ed and Brenda were the best neighbours. For over 30 years Ed was always there to help. He was there for me when I had heart surgery. He cut my grass and shovelled my driveway.. I fondly remember the good times we had in my garage and all the firewood we chopped together. We laughed all the time..I truly miss Ed..Our sympathies to you Brenda and your family. Ed was a good man.
Dan and Pauline

Condolances to the Russell family. I grew up in Gilford - my sister and I went to school with Ed and Ron, we played together, went swimming and skating together, and went to the same Sunday School. Who knew what beautiful memories we were making? I am so sorry for your loss........Carolyn Hughes Smith (London, On)

A good, generous man who was loved by all of his co-workers. Always friendly, always willing to give a hand when you needed, and always supportive. He will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to Brenda and the kids.

A cousin, schoolmate and most of all a good friend. We didn't see much of each other after high school for some years and then we met by accident and it was the same Eddie, never really changed, always smiling and laughing. We hooked up again at the Bradford reunion and it was like we had seen each other just the day before.
I knew he wasn't well but this was a shocker.
He was a very special person ,always caring. Condolences to the family..........we lost a great man!

My sincere sympathy to Brenda, and the Russell family on the passing of Ed. It was much too soon in life. Today is a heart wrenching time for family and friends, but under the circumstances, we can all agree that Ed is now in a much happier place. It was through Ron is brother, that I had any interactions with Ed. He always struck me as a person easy to please, rolling with the punches of life. Unfortunately, despite is brave battle, the last punch is one he could not overcome. He is now resting in peace.
Family friend,
Bernie Oppel

It is with much sadness that we must say goodbye to our dear friend and next door neighbour.
We had 22 years of meeting at the fence for conversation , raking up the leaves and sitting at the barn watching the traffic go through Gilford.
Ed along with Brenda were like another set of grandparents to Tyler and Kurtis. He would entertain them and be there for them, take care of them, watch and feed our dogs , became a big part of our family and we are going to forever miss Ed.
I read a quote recently that applies, “Don’t be sad that he is gone but smile because he was here.”
Deepest Condolences to Brenda and Family,
Love Al, Kelly , Tyler & Kurtis Jackson.
