Decided now was a good time to buy a 6-pack of Moose Drool and tip one up in his memory. Rest in peace good sir and may your family find solace and comfort.

God damn. I was away too long again and come back to absolutely ****ing horrible news. Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends here.
He didnt even get to see the Chiefs go balls out and dfraft a qb. Guess that was too much to ask for. Rest easy, Ed. |

I'm not a fan of the Chiefs, but I'm a classic lurker and responded to a different thread so I felt I should respond to this one because it was a reason I kept coming back for so long. I never knew Ed or replied to any of his posts, but they were impactful to me in so many ways. His strength and total honesty was a vivid reminder to appreciate everything a little more. RIP and we can all remember the life lesson of dignity and what it means to live a full life. I would have been proud to buy that man a beer anywhere in Europe.

I'm very sorry that we lost a guy like this from our CP board. I have a soft spot for all Chiefs fans, and although we all kind of collect and mingle here in cyber space, we all have friends like Ed, and that's why we can all relate to one another here on CP.
My dad never got to see the Chiefs go to another Super Bowl, and every time we lose a Chiefs fan, it makes me very sad that it's been going on 50 years now. Godspeed Ed. Hope you get to watch Mahomie blossom from upstairs and take us to places not seen in half a century. |

Thank you everyone, from Lonewolf Ed's brother
I spent most of the afternoon skimming this thread, especially the posts since January of this year. I shed a few tears at some of the posts, but reading everyone's words of encouragement and their stories of Ed being an inspiration was cathartic for me. I was with Ed when he got the diagnosis of the colon cancer spreading to his liver, and have spent a lot of time since then at our parent's house helping as I could. The last few months were the worst for Ed, and especially the last two weeks, but he did pass away peacefully at least.
Just to let y'all know, I am a long-time Chiefs fan. Our father had season tickets back in the AFL days so I was at a lot of classic games, including the heartbreaking playoff loss to the Dolphins in double overtime. Ed and Dad had season tickets at Arrowhead Stadium and I got to go to a few of those games with Ed. My son and I are heading to Denmark in late August to spread Ed's ashes per his wishes, and leave most of them in a box at the Irish House in Aalborg. If any of you make it to the Irish House do us a favor. Order a cheeseburger (they are excellent) and ask for George's Irish Mustard on it. I suggest doing this before you tell Jerome that Ed sent you. Jerome doesn't serve mustard so Ed always brought his own. If you tell him Ed sent you before asking for the mustard don't be surprised if Jerome curses you out. |
