“I consider Ed to be my friend, though I only knew him for fifteen months. Ed is my brother in Christ, whom I was blessed to serve as his pastor. I pray the Lord will surround his family with grace, love, and comfort, and will give them all peace in their hearts and courage for the future. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.”
