So sorry to hear of Ed's passing. One of my favorite clients. Always enjoyed his visits to our office with son John. Proud to have known one of our WWII veterans who served and loved our country so proudly.

My condolences to the Ed Martin family. Ed was one of my supervisors at Ragnar Benson when I worked in the estimating department and I learned a lot from him. We used to go out to lunch together and we spent a few nights tipping a few at Frank and Donnas’ place. He will be missed!
