Yes, we snarked at him and he snarked back. As Bob and others have said if you gave him crap back you were almost family. It was his way of testing your mettle. He was generous, and would give help when needed(several times in my case). Many will think some of us are exalting him a bit much. You had to know his history, health, and problems. Ed is the guy that you may not feel like talking to or contacting all the time but there was a comfort knowing he was there and present in you life. Kinda like all you folks. Bud hasn't been heard from for awhile but it's a comfort knowing he's there. I feel the same way about this entire list. When one is called to the last garage there is a hole....at least until those departed are reincarnated as someone worthy of being on this list, i.e., hates cats, moans about bootleg parts and low quality from a certain Asian country with which we're going to have a tariff war. Yup, Ed was family like it or not. I say this with respect...Rest in Piece you *@#$&@!! HA! Now he'll haunt me. Yup definitely a hole in the space time continuum.<br> <br> Dave W<br> 59 :{)<br> 59 MGA 1500<br> Burlington WI<br> "<i>Pay It Forward"</i><br> <br> <br> On 3/2/2018 8:58 AM, Allen Hefner via Spridgets wrote:<br> </div> <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:CAMEj5OtYt_CA2NvND8nBmvSNTrDKK3Ev=q1za7b2UjPmXLvdAQ@mail.gmail.com"> <div dir="ltr">I was sorry to hear about Ed the first time.
