I remember Ed as a friendly, energetic person. His love and caring for Ruth were always present. We will miss having him in our lives
Ruth — My thoughts and deepest sympathies are with you and your family during this difficult time. Although I only had the pleasure of meeting Ed once, I remember him fondly and know his spirit will live on through you, his children and grandchildren. I hope that the positive memories of your life together sustain you now and always. — Lisa
Ruth, I\’m very, very sorry for your loss. I will be thinking of you and your family and you will be in my prayers. – Jerry Cornelison
Dearest Saxey Family, While I have not had the good fortune of meeting all of you, the love and pride that Ed held so deeply in his heart for each and every one of you, were quite familiar to me, as was the beautiful and heart-warming relationship Ruth and Ed shared. My prayer for you is that on the days when grief overwhelms your senses, that you find strength and comfort in the tremendous love that Ed shared and will ALWAYS share with you. So many will miss Ed, but we\’ll never forget him. “I will welcome and care for the ways in which my loved one continues to live on in me.” (Author Unknown) Ruth, please know that you are in my constant thoughts and prayers. Love, Bernie Robert
