I just saw Ed´s death notice on LCHS newsletter. I knew Ed all through school - Resurrection and LaSalle HS. He drove me to school in senior year. I used to see him at mass as was there when my daughter was baptized. Last time I saw him was at a HS reunion. He was one of the nicest guys and I do miss him. My condolences to his family.

My Dad (Jerry White, 1st cousin) would take us to their house in the summertime to go swimming in their pool. Eddie was 10 yrs older than me but he was always very nice to us. He'll be missed. Rest in peace Eddie. Kathy Scott (White)
