Waco, TX Monday, October 22, 2018 Deepest condolences to the family. May God's promise at John 5:28,29 of a future resurrection bring you comfort. Until that time comes, he assures us at Psalm 34:18 that he "is close to the brokenhearted" and "saves those who are crushed in spirit." So he understands your pain and grief and is eager to help you by giving you the strength you need to cope during this most difficult time. (Philippians 4:13)Deb McGee

Lorena, TX Wednesday, October 17, 2018 While I didn't have the honor of working with Ed, I am aware of the impact that he had on others here at the McLennan County CSCD (Adult Probation). Those remaining at the department that worked with Ed speak fondly of him as both a person and a leader. Ed played a major role in ensuring that the mission of the department endured. We are so sorry for your loss, and you are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless.Molly Renfroe
