Edward Francis Wilkinson (15 Nov 1929 - 18 Jun 2015)

Very sad to hear of Teds passing. I am glad mum (Doreen Beal) and I finally made that trip a short time ago to visit Ted, Nancy and grateful Mark made special arrangements to be there too to rekindle old friendships. Ted was always a gentleman and ready with a smile when I was a young friend of Mark and Cliff (and neighbour) in Basildon some 50 years ago. Mum was very sorry to hear the news and sends her old friend Nancy her love. Kind regards from Dorren, Janeen, Ann and Richard Beal.

Fond memories of uncle Ed holidays spent at holiday camps launching and chasing rockets (xl5) I believe,a trip to the doctors in his motor bike and sidecar in Basildon when I fell off my chair at the dinner table The long phone calls between him and Dad that probably helped B.T. profits.Sad to hear of Ed's passing but my fond memories live on and my heartfelt condolences to the Family.

A truly wonderful Uncle, of whom I have many happy memories of spending time with. Such kind eyes but with a twinkle and full of fun and that's all of my memories rolled into one "FUN" not to mention an amazing smile and laugh which I believe was infectious.
I think back with tears in my eyes but are quickly replaced with a smile on my face. Thank you xx

Very sorry to hear of Uncle Ed's passing. He was a true gent and always good company. He will be greatly missed.
My sympathies to, Auntie Nancy, Mark, Cliff and the rest of the family.

So sorry to hear of Ted`s passing. He and I have been going to the Daventry Wine Club for many years and the whole group will miss him enormously. Sympathies to Nancy and the rest of the family,

Teresa, Fred and I were very sad to hear of Ed's death. As well as being a much loved Husband, Father and Granddad to Nancy and his immediate family he was a great uncle to me and I have many fond memories of him with the family going back many years. He was a good man.
Our sympathies and all our love to Nancy, Mark, Cliff, Nicola and Rebecca.
