Charles Ferrell wrote a sympathy message

“Ed was an exceptional man. I got to know him back in the 1970s when he was Gardena Mayor and I was Editor of the Gardena Valley News. He was a class act. The last time I saw him was around 20 years, when I was President of the Banning Kiwanis Club and editor of the Banning/Beaumont Record Gazette. Four members of our Banning Kiwanis Club paid an interclub visit to the Gardena Kiwanis Club. Ed was there and made a couple of nice comments about me. I returned in kind. He was a good guy”
