Thanks harleybob, that really honestly means a lot to me to know Ed thought highly of me. I was just sitting here thinking...you know it's so funny that you can have a person that you have never meet face to face, yet you feel such a sad loss when something like this happens. I really felt like someone punched me in the stomach when Erin called me tonight and told me. I'm still shocked by it.

Like you and Ron, I had not yet meet Ed in person, we were just about to change that though but we talked all the time on the phone and through emails and Pm's. Almost to the point of where I felt like I had known him for ever. It goes to show the "good" that these sites like this can do by connecting people with each other and making people you can really call your friends.

Everyone always says after someone passes "they were a good guy"...but with Ed I really believe that to be true. He was a good guy, just a happy friendly helpful down to earth person, and he's going to be missed a lot.
