Hey man, I miss you so damn much. So much is going on in this World, you'd be so disappointed bro. It's my birthday and I'm sitting in the parking lot firekeepers, I have no money I just needed 2 get away. I talk 2 no one anymore. I sold my vinyls today and cried thinkn bout u ur tattoo of record player . I hate life without you. 
 Anyways I know today woulda been you and Lindsey's anniversary. Never say never. IM so proud of EDDIE! He stomped a mudhole in Andy's ass! He protected his mother. I will always look after the kids man. Bro they took it all when I stood up for myself and others. THANK U FOR BEING MY BESTFRIEND.  I LOVE AND MISS U SO MUCH MY HEART IS STILL BROKEN..

It's been a year now and evert single day I think about my best friend. My heart is still as empty as it was the moment I found out. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with and I lost the only person who truly knew me  and the little things you only tell to someone you trust. I can only imagine how Eddie and Nicole feel. I spent countless weekends with Ed and the kids. My friend was a tough bear sometimes ,but if you really knew Ed, you knew the tough guy stuff was just Ed lol  he was the nicest man I've ever met (to me) the biggest heart, and his love for  his kids, records, big dogs and his love for laughing at ridiculous things was infectious. He never knew how much I looked up to him. I love him Eddie and Nicole. I hope to talk to u one day please,  my very best friend

I'm not too sure if my last message sent, but today is a day that I'm supposed to rejoice and all I can think about is you message me and telling me a birthday and that you love me and we haven't even spoken for almost a year. You called me on your anniversary and I know how hard that day is for you and I always been here for you and I always will. I miss you more than you'll ever know man and I wish you were here because I need you so much right now man you are always will be my best friend in the whole world and I love you and I miss you so much

In theory today's supposed to be a day to be thankful and rejoice and God knows I'm trying but man this is hard. Not only is today my birthday but to me most importantly today's your anniversary Ed. And all I can think about is your last message to me telling me happy birthday even though you were going through the most DIFFICULT TIME OF YOUR LIFE.  Ed still thought about me and we hadn't even talked for close to a year. He , You told me you loved me in that message. 
Well Ed brother, I need you my friend.  I miss you soooooo much everyday man. This still is the hardest thing I've ever dealt with and I miss you and love you man.  You're always so close to my heart and I know the true Ed and I love you bro

Time passes faster than we know. There's not a day that goes by that I don't miss my friend. Today my other friend john will bury his father. I miss u man and I really need you today bro. But I can hear your voice my friend so we shall get through this.  Thinking about my friend.  Love ya bro. 

So many wrestlemanias ed and I would sit there boo/cheer john cena and crowd watch on tv. There's always this drunk girl  neon shirt would stand up and yell 2! And spill her beer. We would laugh, but ED WOULD LAUGH SO DANG HARD! it made me high pitch laugh.  Today is a day I wish things were a joke . Fyi Cena came out with the make a wish kids and high fived them all before his wrestlemania match (cena lost bro, passing the torch) 
Well I'm thinking about you man and I miss you every single dang day... love ya man

It's been nearly 2 months and it still doesn't seem real.  Ed and I lived next door to each other at colony bay apartments. On St.pattys day, approx. 15yrs ago we decided to bring the green party to the black dog pub, which was right next to our appt. So I found the green food coloring in his cabinet and we went there and decided to put half of the food coloring in 1 pitcher of beer. BAD IDEA.. the beer turned dark purple but we drank it. My mouth was green and ED and I both pooped NEON GREEN for a week!! The laughs we had about that!  Man I miss my friend. Love ya man 

This was summer of 2017 I believe. My friend was running a pro wrestling show at the Allen county war memorial Coliseum and I asked ed if he wanted to pick up some of our old childhood heroes.   So this is a rare pic I got to take of ed almost smiling, with wwe legends " road warrior Animal and on the other side was wwe legend Tatanka.  We had a great day that day running around with the wrestlers. I miss you and think about you everyday man...I love you man.

I apologize, the memories accompanied with the pictures I posted were : Ed wanted to take me to Louisville because he loved it there. The picture was taken at the football game where Ed proceeded to prance me around showing everyone how I could open a beer bottle with nearly anything around. He laughed so loud! Ed was so excited for us to go there and drink bourbon with his dad. Then I had to sleep next to the lawn jockey. He said "Mitchell " take care buddy! Lol great memories. 
ED the kids and I would watch WWE all the time, Eddie loved john cena. I used to get pix with the wrestlers and he wanted Eddie to get a pic so bad. I got off work late so I called Ed told him exactly where to go and he got the pic with john cena and his son. Eddie used to play with his action figure all the time. I miss you man 

Eddie was friend.   I got him some Christmas presents when he was down on his luck. I remember him tearing up that I gave him presents. 

This was outside my apartment on Christmas Day.  He came to my home and we ate and had a nice Christmas. God Bless.  I miss my guy.  

I was absolutely gutted to see this.  Ed was the nicest, kindest and most generous man.  Even when times were beyond tough for him,  he was always there with a joke and a smile.  My husband and I met Big Ed and Little Eddie at the pool at our apartment years ago and he quickly became a part of our fiber.  We moved about 6 months ago and I lost touch although my husband still talked to him occasionally.  I've cried so many tears since yesterday just because he was such a good kind soul and he had so much love to give and I hate that we lost touch.  Rest easy Big Ed, until we meet again my friend.

From 2 different additions growing up (Sunnybrook and Hacienda) it was great having a friend to grow up with. So sorry to hear of this. Prayers and peace to your family in your time of loss.

Ed was a really good guy.  I have a lot of great memories with him. We used to have so much fun hanging out and going to concerts. We lost touch as people do but I'll always remember him being a funny loving person. He was so proud of his kids and talked about them fondly.  I will forever remember my friend Ed and may he rest in peace. My condolences go out to his family.  

A week later as I sit in parkview waiting and hoping that my mother doesn't leave this earth yet, I reflect on the very best friend I ever had in my entire life. Wondering why and these things happen. I can only hope that my friend knows in his heart how much I truly loved and LOVE HIM. I've shared a few memories that may never get heard or read but ED , YOU KNEW ME BETTER THAN ANYONE MAN AND I PROMISE I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND BE THERE FOR YOUR FAMILY IF ALLOWED. I LOVE YOU MY DEAR DEAR FRIEND 

I've known Ed since elementary school! We would ride bikes! And I would listen to him play drums!! We lost touch over the years! But, we reconnected layer on, and would see him at concerts and at restaurants with his kids! Man did he love his record collection!!! You will be missed my brother!!! 

Rest in Peace Eddie. You and my kids shared years of fun growing up together. I am,so sorry to hear this.

I'm going to miss you buddy. We had so many laughs and memories.  Thank you for being a great friend...

Sincerely: Scott Baney

Wow.  I met Ed over this vehicle right here.  We were both crazy about it and we had plans to get together after the weather became nice to drive somewhere, park and show our rides.   Ed and I became friends after I sold this car to him this past summer and we talked often.  I had a chance to pray with Ed and for Ed.  I called Ed Saturday to chat and Nicole answered his phone and told me that he had passed away.   Nicole, your dad talked about you and your brother all the time.  Ed was very kind, loved Diesel, his friends (Josh and others) and was a genuine soul.  I was blessed to have had the opportunity to meet and get to know Ed.  Nicole, you and your Brother make sure to take care of your dads Lincoln.  He wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.  Prayers to you all.  Rodney
