Message: We are honored to provide this Book of Memories to the family.

Message: My favorite memory of Uncle Ed - sitting in the very back of his white station wagon with the windows rolled down, singing Johnny Cash songs at the top of our lungs! Does life get any better than that?? I cannot listen to "Ring of Fire" without thinking of him and smiling. When Dad was in Vietnam and the rest of our family lived a couple houses away, Uncle Ed (and the entire Bloom family) made our lives immeasurably better, and we have great memories. We wish you fair winds and following seas, Uncle Ed. Janice and Dad

Message: Our sympathy and prayers.

Message: What a great man Ed Bloom is and will always be. I have known Ed for 50 years now. Hard to believe that. I will miss our talks we had when I came back to visit my parents’ house across the street a half dozen times a year. Even after Ed lost his sight he would still remember my voice when I would yell out, Ed how are you doing. He would always say Good Charlie how long are you in for and then we would always talk while Avenell was working the garden. In our younger days Ed was there for the talks on how you should behave. Most of you know I needed a few talks. With my dad on the road during the week. Mr. Ed made sure I had a talking too. How found my memories are for Ed. When Helen was there and then Avanell you could see the love, Ed had for his family. I know sometimes he could be rough but that was his way of telling us he cared and loved us. If he didn't say anything to me then I would have worried. Ed will be truly missed but never forgotten. How we long for our past but our future in inevitable and we soon will leave our legacies behind. Ed has left a great legacy. With our family’s affection and sympathy, Charlie and Linda MacDonald
