Tonight a photo of the St. Catharines Teepees popped up on Facebook so I looked up Ed on the internet and sadly learned of his passing. Ed came out to our hockey practices to help out when I was 14 years old. We knew he was great but he was so humble and he taught by example. He once took a bucket of pucks and went into the corner and placed a puck six inches off of the icing line. To my amazement and I have never forgotten this, he put over half of the pucks in the net. I have used Ed's lesson in focus and concentration and the belief that you can accomplish the unimaginable when you put your mind to something throughout my 34 year career in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I am honoured to have been coached by one of the greats, Ed made us better and taught us valuable life lessons.
My condolences to the family of a great man.

Hi Mike, long time buddy. I'm really sorry to hear about your pop. I remember a few nights sitting in your basement having a cold brew with you two & watching hockey. Take care bud. Cal
