"Dearest Pauline: I just heard of Ed's passing and am so sad for you and your family. Playing bridge and working on landscape with Ed was so fun. He always sent perennials to my garden when they were seasonally discarded from our Orchards. They are still blooming today and will be a memorial to Ed for his kindness. I will miss him. My deepest sympathy and prayers, Cheryl"
