    Ed, I just heard of your passing. I have such wonderful memories of you and me as we ran track and cross country at WVU. I will always cherish those days together with you and the great times we had at 408 Grant Ave, and University Ave in Morgantown. God Bless You. I hope to meet you again upon my passing. Your running pal, Roger Meador. I remember your saying that you are "strong like bull." and you were.
