Ed is someone who always added to my sense of well being through his warmth, I so wish I could have been there more for him through his challenges, but he rarely shared any negativity, let alone personal pain. He’s been a difference maker in all the lives he’s touched and an influence on mine that make me a better person through carrying out his consistent example of human generosity. His life was well worthwhile and won’t be forgotten, I love you Ed!
I love Ed, too, and truly believe now that he’s continuing to be there for all of us, just from a more beautiful side. He’s hugging us all and telling us not to worry and to love each other.
Terrina Porawski I didn’t find out about my brothers death until 6 months later. I loved my brother very much and am sorry that our adoptive parents did every thing they could to keep us apart. He has a nephew, Adam, who never really got to know him, and I deeply regret we did not know he was in trouble. I am very certain of the cause of the pain he suffered inside as I have it to. I am so happy he had so many friends and had built a wonderful reputation. I just wish he hadn’t left.
Hugs & love to you, Terrina, on the loss of your brother. He made such a big difference in my life! I am so sorry for your pain, too, and can say that time and love do make a huge difference and lift the burden a bit. I know because I have felt the same pain more than once. We are all here for a reason, and I am so glad to know that you find some sunshine in knowing about Ed’s wonderful gift to all of us in the dear friend he was to us all.
Thank-you Carol for your kind words. I am hoping that someone can help me acquire pictures of Ed. i am hoping that might be you. I am still having a terrible time with his death and how hateful joe porawski was. I am certain that the inner pain Ed hid so well was because of him. i went to the City Council and was hoping to arrange a plaque for him but I need help. My e-mail is maximumcat2002@yahoo.com. If anyone deserves a plague in this city it is him. Last year I called and forgave him for the past. It was probably too late for him to say he had a sister and wouldn’t have wanted to explain why he hadn’t mentioned me before. No matter what happened, I am in pain over the pain he felt. I know it to well. Please help me if you can. Love Terrena Porawski
Thank you so much Carol. Ed talked about your friendship fondly. Thank you for sharing your stories and your haiku.

Thanks, Chuck. That means a lot to know that, like a big, warm hug (the kind Ed always gave) right when I need it. Ed’s love is all around us!
