It was with great sadness that we heard about Ed's death. He was a fun loving man with a wicked sense of humour. He was a true family man, he often told me how proud he was of Susan and Martin and his love for Bev and Sandra. He was, of course delighted when Charlotte and Abigail arrived Sleep well Ed, you fought hard and you will be missed by many. RIP Ed.

Sending all our love to you guys, Ed was so welcoming, loving, funny, caring and silly- exactly what a Dad should be. He always had a smile and a kind word, and he brought so much laughter to the room. It was an absolute honour to know him, and I know his loss will leave a big Ed shaped hole. Sending huge hugs to you all xxx
