Ed is my uncle! I have a lot of good memories, especially as young child. He was very involved in our lives when we were little. He was funny and very soft spoken and a kind soul. I LOVE HIM SO! We lost touch for a lot of years, but then finally got back in touch when I was 17 when my mom Linda his sister decided to relocate To SLC utah. I lived there for a couple of years and gave birth to my first child Heather at the University hospital! Ed was involved in our lives then to. I remember when I was pregnant we would get together and play monopoly and chess with the family! We had alot of fun! He had a great sense of humor! My mom is his sister, and unfortunately she just passed away to, at the beginning of August. So sad all my family is passing on! I do have fond memories of them all. RIP uncle Ed and Mom Linda Smiley! You will always be in my 💜 heart! You will never be forgotten! Love you both so very much!

Worked with Ed for many years at PCMC. VERY interesting and knowledgeable person. But more importantly, he was very kind with a great sense of humor. Is a memorial service planned?
