Dear Steve and all of Ed's family, I worked with Ed for many years at Lytron in Woburn, MA. He was such a gentleman. I have many great memories of those years. After he retired he was invited back to company functions which he always attended. It was always great to see him. He was a pleasure to know and I will miss him. My sincere sympathy to all.
