Hey Ed, just sitting here and I had to look up your service time so I decided to write you a message. We had a lot of fun times but I don’t have anyone to ask me to tell the coke story anymore, So I guess he won’t get upset with us about it anymore. So I’ll always remember that. So peace be unto you my friend.
My condolences to the family of Edward Williams Sr. May God be with you as you mourn the lost of your love one.
To the Williams family. My heart is with you and your family at this time of your loss. There is comfort in knowing God’s promises about the resurrection hope.
