Joni, you were such a wonderful caring caretaker for Ed, and my daughters and I are so appreciative of all you did for him. We'll always remember the popcorn days, that you made sure he got to go to activities and van rides and sewing buttons on for him! You and Julie were so kind and made leaving him in your care so much easier for us. I'll never in my lifetime be able to express my thanks for all you did for him and for me. May God bless you and enable you to keep on being a wonderful helper for those who need you so badly. God bless you always!

Thank you, Lindy, for your kind words. Your grandpa was our children's gramps, too, and your family was part of ours. Ed often said how fortunate we were to have such nice, kind people as extended family.
