So very sorry to hear the news of Eddy’s passing. We became friends in middle school and I have dry fond memories of him, such a kind person. May he Rest In Peace.
Ed was a kind man with a good heart and a wry sense of humor. Sincere condolences to Cathy and family. Peace.
I was sadden to read about Ed’s passing, he be-friended my husband when we moved here from N.H. We would often send little hello’s to each other viva e-mails. R I P my friend I will miss our e-mails. Your family now has an Angel watching over them.???❤️
Cathy and family, we are so saddened to hear of Ed’s passing. We have fond memories of him coming to our house and he and Mike playing their guitars all night. He was truly a sweet guy, and we always enjoyed his company. Our deepest sympathies go out to you all, and please know you are in our prayers.
Ed was my brother in law , I’m going to miss talking with him about our kids and grandchildren. He would always make me laugh when he talked about things breaking down and the trouble he went through to fix them ! His greatest love ❤️ was his family !!!

Ed was kind with a gentle soul and a great sense of humor. I haven’t seen him in over 25 years but remember doing weekend trips to Stow Vermont with he and Cathy. I believe the last time we all went, they had just had their first child and they were both happy and over the Moon. Cathy and family, keep the good memories close to your heart.
I was so sorry to hear of Edmund’s passing. He was a kind person and I am sorry we did not see each other more often. May God

A friend both in fellowship and life we liked similar things and will miss our conversations. God had seemed to have brought us together and now my friend well done, go now and find your rest. To the Taylor family may you find peace and comfort in your time of need, may the love of God bring you comfort.
So sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. Condolences to all that knew his strength, love, and hope.

Ed was a gentle Soul who had enormous Wisdom and Faith. I went to High School with Ed, and many times met him socially. With God now.

So sad to hear of Eddy’s passing. Eddy was my brother’s friend and he was frequently at our house when we were kids. My dad loved Eddy because he always made him laugh. Rest In Peace, Eddy. Deepest sympathy to Eddy’s family.
R.I.P. My dear friend ,You always had a welcoming smile for me.
Ed leaves a legacy of LOVE … he loved his family … he loved music and he loved animals … thats a great legacy to leave behind .?? ❤️ ??
I knew Edmund as a very humble, understanding, non-judgmental person. His honesty was a blessing to me, for I was looking for an AA sponsor whom I could tell my deepest, darkest secrets to. I heard him speaking of his experience with the steps.Wow! It was powerful. I said to myself, “That’s the man I’m going to ask to sponsor me.” That man did not judge me harshly, did not give me orders, did not talk to me in a condescending way. He treated me with dignity and respect. He transmitted the care of God to me from his heart, so I shall accord him dignity, respect, and homage. Thank you Ed Taylor.
So very sorry to hear this sad news. My sincere condolences to his family. We went to high school together. May he rest in peace.
Eddy was a very loyal and funny person. When he and George Wesolowski got together it was a non-stop comedy show.
Eddy was great person and will be surely missed by all who knew him.
So many memories. Being only children our families would vacation together. Many trips in my dad’s van Fort hunting. We would get in trouble for stupid things because we were bored driving. Aunt Frances would get so mad at us which made us laugh even more. We were part of each others lives for many years and watched our families grow. I miss you. Stay out of trouble with the family up there. I love you
Eddie’s house was were my sister & I grew up. His mom helped my Mom by babysitting us. Many of fun times, spent in their backyard. I am so sorry to hear this. I will remember all the fun times. My condolences to his family.
