Dear Patty and Ed and family. We are so sorry to hear about your brothers passing. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers as will as your dear brother Ed. You have our deepest sympathy. Fred and Toots Corell
Condolences to the Swift family. I was lucky to be a neighbor on Coy rd. to Ed and his family. Big smile. Hard worker. Very humble. A solid gentleman. Couldn’t have ask to live next to a better fellow.
I’m sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. I remember Ed when we all were kids in Henrietta . Ed was always so very kind and a great big brother. Blessing to the Swift family may your great memories of Ed bring you all please .
I do not know Ed’s family, but I spoke briefly with one of his daughters the day he went into the hospital. I was praying for healing and restoration of health for Ed, but it seems God’s plan was to heal him completely and call him home.
I will miss Ed’s kind nature and easy smile. I will miss his joke of the day. One could not question his love of the Lord. Ed was the most humble man I have known and he was friendly to all whom he met.
I pray that the Lord will comfort Ed’s children, grandchildren, siblings, and dear friends. I pray you will find peace in the days ahead. I know Ed is now rejoicing in Eternity.

I am so sorry to hear about Ed passing. He was a very nice man who always had a kind word for everyone and always made time to say hello when I would run into him in town. Love and prayers to his family.
Dear Ed’s family, we are so sorry to hear about your loss. We had been neighbors for many years. Looked forward to Ed bringing his children to our house for Halloween and they were the only ones who came for years. He really was very religious and is now in heaven with Susan. Rest In Peace, Ed!
Sending my condolences to the Swift family.

Our sincere sympathy to Ed’s children and extended family. Ed was a dear friend, a humble servant and devoted Christ follower. We served shoulder to shoulder for many years in Lima. We’re so sorry for your loss.

Ed was a true believer in his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was always ready to talk about the Lord and tried to build relationships in his community. I will miss his smile and I will miss seeing him walking around the town saying hello to all that he would meet. Ed will be missed. God bless
Very Sorry, got to know Ed last year. He was a very nice man. Peace.
Surprised and saddened to learn of Ed’s passing – our condolences to his family members. My wife and I knew Ed and Sue when we attended Lima Baptist Church years ago. Our kids were around the same age and I recall that Ed was determined to assist with a scouting program because he so valued the time that would be spent with his son. I also recall that when shaking hands with him, one would encounter the strong leathery hands of a hard-working man. And we recall, as shared in his obituary, that he was a humble, friendly, man of God. A life well-lived.
Love and miss you so very much my dear brother. I was so blessed to have you for my big brother. The most gentlest, humblest, sweetest man ever. Until we meet again.
Your little sister, Patty
We are so sorry for your loss. Ed was a good man and the world will be a little sadder with him gone from it.
Love Sue and Brian Mineti
Patty,Ed and family my condolences to you all.
