I am sorry to hear about your loss. I wish you and your family the best.
Shelly Hollingsworth - I Worked With Mary, His Wife, At Fdc.
Ed was a child of God, presented to the Lord in his baptism when he was two weeks old. He never wandered from that faith, but lived and died in a strong belief in his Savior, Jesus Christ. There will be a reunion in heaven, and I, for one, look forward to seeing Ed again! Let's all plan to BE THERE!
Pastor Stan And Dorothy Jones - Pastor
Mary, I send my deepest sympathy. I met you, Ed, and your family while I was secretary at St. John's Lutheran Church on Dickson Street 25 years ago! Ed was always so kind to me and made me feel like part of the church. Rev. Claybaker hired me. I know he'll be missed by all his family and friends. In Christ, Rosilee Mugley

I have such fond memories of the wonderful Karloski family from my association with them at Root Elementary. I am saddened by the death of Edwin. My heartfelt sympathy and love are extended to each family member.

Love is patient, love is kind It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4
Darren And Mary Siena - Daughter/son-In-Law
To a great man who has always taught by his example.Who always had a great sense of humor and could make us smile. Ed had a unique way of looking at the positive side of life. We love you and will miss you. You will be thought of often, by all.
The Aaron Smiley Family
I shall never forget Ed's dedication to his church and Lord. I shall never forget the Family! Death is not an extinguishing of light but putting out the lamp because the Dawn has come! May your faith in Christ and his promises sustain you; May his love surround you; May his strength give you confidence in the days ahead.
Rich Claybaker - Former Pastor To The Karloski Family
