    He will always be Dooner to most of his longtime PJ friends. He’d correct me when we worked together at Park Place I couldn’t help it. He was always a hoot to be around. Lots of love to Judy, Dusty and the girls.

    My heart is breaking today after reading the news of Ed’s passing.
    My husband is a resident in the memory unit at the Veterans Care Center, where Ed worked.
    We were very fortunate to have Ed work with our Veteran, My husband formed a great bond with Ed during their time together
    .Ed was so kind, caring and fun filled with our loved one.. He was always so informative and loving when we phoned to get updates on our loved one… Ed had a great sense of humor that would help me through my grief of placing my husband in his care and learning to go on with my life without my husband at my side any longer.
    I am so very sorry for the loss of your son, dad, grandfather, brother, and family member and friend.
    i will miss Ed so much.. I am honored that I had the pleasure of knowing and loving him.. He was so very special. .a fantastic, loving, caring and kind gentlemen’s gentleman. .
    .

    Fly High, Ed… May you find much love and peace in the arms of our Lord in his Heavely home….

    Ed was one of my dad’s caregivers at ENVH. He was an outstanding nurse and one of my dad’s favorites. My sympathies to Ed’s family and friends and everyone who loved him.

    Ed was one of my dad’s favorite nurses at Eastern Nebraska Veterans Home. He took care of my dad and brought great joy into my dad’s life. Ed was a kind. caring and compassionate guy. He always put others before himself. He will be greatly missed. My condolences go out to his family, friends and anybody who had the honor to know him.
