I did not believe it when I first heard of the news: how could you leave us all behind so soon? You were a very nice man, full of life, my whole family loves you and we will miss you terribly. Prior commitments will prevent us from attending the gathering to celebrate your life. We would like to convey our condolences and sympathies to your family during this difficult time, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

I just learned the new. Shocked in disbelief. We just became neighbors, saw you leave every morning but we only spoke twice, still in that brief time I knew that you were a good person. Sad to hear that you are no longer with us. My condolences to your family and friends. RIP Eddie

I went to Ed to have him help me with color once. He spent a huge amount of time with me, and right away seemed like more than just my stylist. I followed him from one shop to another, knowing that not only was he the one to trust with my hair, but he genuinely cared about his clients personal lives as well. I only learned of his passing today and I’m stunned. My deepest condolences.

I just learned of your passing today , I called revolution to set up an apt to see you & they told me the terrible , terrible news . Ed , for the last 7 years you were so much more to me than my family’s stylist. You became one of my very close friends . the last time I saw you I confided in you and you made me feel better . I knew I could count on you and trust you and your advice was well taken . Had I known of your passing I would have come to say my goodbyes, I will pray for you and your family at this difficult time . God bless you Ed and may you rest in peace .
