Dear Helen and Family - Our thoughts and love are with you all during this time. Ed was one heck of a guy. Always ready to share a laugh or BS about golf to Jim. The memory of golf outings and our Derby weekend will always bring a smile to my face. Love to you all, Jim & Janice Bearden Janice Bearden
