Our deepest sympathies to Aunt Rose, Alana, Jennifer and family. One of my best memories of Uncle Ed was when he ran a grocery delivery service (one of his many 2nd jobs) for United Kosher in Ottawa. I helped him out for a couple of weeks one summer. Whenever he delivered to a Senior’s house he always made the effort to spend some time with them, talk and make sure they were doing alright. It was a very caring gesture which I know was a big part of who he was.
