• Both sorry and shocked to hear of the loss of a good man, husband, father and friend. This came as a complete shock for myself. We have lost touch over the years but always remained in my thoughts. We will always miss your candid personality and witty remarks. You always will have the front seat in my boat! Rest peacefully my friend and bless your family with the strength and courage to move forward with fond memories. - Posted by: Grant & Judy (Freinds) on: Jul 22, 2012

• Ed always had a kind word, a wicked sense of humour, a twinkle in his eye, and a smile. We will miss his cheerful and uplifting personality. Ed will live on in our hearts and mind. Kim, Josh and Carly, bon courage. - Posted by: Vic and Marguerite Massicotte (Neighbours) on: Jul 06, 2012

• Such a shock to hear the sad news of Ed's passing. We were 'birthday buddies'. Not a year went by, in our younger days, that we didn't have a birthday bonfire in the woods outside of Wpg. Such fantastic memories. He always had a smile and a hug everytime I saw him on my visits home. But there was no smile bigger than the one he had when he was with his family. My thoughts and prayers go out to his beautiful wife Kim and children. An awesome guy who was taken from us far before he should have been. You'll be missed by many Ed.

• I work beside Kim at the office and I really miss her this week. Kim proudly shared wonderful stories about their family life - especially the scrumptious meals Ed liked to prepare, family trips, fishing, birthdays, kids' activities and accomplishments. Together they raised a beautiful family. - Posted by: Lynne Foley (Kim's co-worker) on: Jul 06, 2012

• My heart goes out to Kim, Josh and Carly... you have many great memories of a wonderful friend, husband and dad. A few of my memories are...Ed's hot car that Kim drove to school, the welcoming hospitality at Buffalo Point and Ed's garlic (ceasar) salad. My thoughts are with you, Love Lynn - Posted by: Lynn Cowley (friend) on: Jul 06, 2012

• Heartfelt sympathy to Kim, Josh, and Carly at this time. Billy Joel song "Only the good die young" is playing. Ed loved his family first and tunes second, he was a great friend, hockey, golf, buddy whose infectious humor and camaradrie will be sorely missed by many. - Posted by: Henry garvey (Friend) on: Jul 05, 2012

• We were shocked to hear of Ed's death. We send our sympathy to Kim and the children, Aunt Sharon, Cindy, Debbie, Melody and their families. God Bless you all. I remember when the family would come to New Waterford, the first place Ed wanted to go was to the water to fish. - Posted by: Linda Watts/Keith Watts (cousins) on: Jul 05, 2012

• My heart goes out to Ed's family. Eddie was a great co-worker. I worked with Ed for 15 years and was lucky to be able to work beside him for four years and got to know him good, he was very proud of his family. I'll miss him during our 8 o'clock break where he always made us laugh. - Posted by: randy schierle (friend) on: Jul 05, 2012

• A complete shock to me and I feel so bad for Ed's family. Ed was a class act who always had a funny story to share. Our kids played lacrosse together one year. We worked together. Ed's sister Cyndi is married to Ken a good friend of mine for a lot of years. When I first got to Depot K in 2000 Ken told me that his brother in law worked there and said he told Ed to come over and say hello. Ed came by and said, "So I hear you play hockey with that miserable old bastard." And he laughed almost uncontrollably which he did whenever he told a joke. I had a lot of good laughs with Ed over the years at work, on the golf course and the occasional drink at the "A". I hadn't seen much of him the last couple of years with my change of job and our busy lives with kids and general life, but whenever I did, we just continued on like we saw each other yesterday. My condolences to Ed's family, I still can't believe it. Ed was the kind of guy you just felt would be around forever, you know? - Posted by: Rob Carson (friend) on: Jul 05, 2012

• MY HEARTFELT SYMPATHY TO FAMILY AND FREINDS; AS KIDS ED AND I WENT FISHING ALOT TO ASSINBOINE RIVER BY BIKE. IT TRULY WAS ONE OF EDS PASSIONS, ANY ONE WHO REALLY KNEW ED KNEW HE HAD A WICKED SENSE OF HUMOR AND WE ALWWAYS HAD LOTS OF LAUGHS ALONG THE WAY. WILL MISS HIM DEARLY. HIS BUD FROM GRANADA CRESENT - Posted by: John Koldon (childhood buddys) on: Jul 05, 2012

• Living in Kitchener Ontario we didn't get to really know Ed but heard many times the wonderful man, father and husband he was. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with everyone, family and friends of Ed's. We send hugs and love to everyone and wish we could be there with you. May God give us all the strength and great courage in the days ahead and comfort us as well. With all our of love Diana and Greg Briand - Posted by: Greg and Diana Briand (Brother and Sister In Law on Ed's wifes side) on: Jul 05, 2012

• You will be missed - RIP - Posted by: Sheldon Briand (Brother in law) on: Jul 05, 2012

• I remember clearly when Ed was born, in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia. Shortly after, his family moved to Winnipeg, where Ed grew up, married, and raised his beautiful family, along with his wife, Kim. Ed was an outstanding son, husband, and father, a man of integrity. He will be greatly missed! - Posted by: Rose Lewycky (Aunt) on: Jul 05, 2012

• We will always have the memory of the campfire at buffalo point. how welcoming Ed was and what a wonderful couple Ed and Kim were. I will remember Ed's love of classic rock and guessing with him who was singing what. when Kim and Ed were having their much wanted second child I asked Ed what he felt about it, only because of the age difference of the two children. His reply was that the ten years of being a Father to Josh were the best ten years of his life so far so he could hardly wait to add another baby watts into their happy home. Kim, Josh and Carly our thoughts and prayers are with you From Mike, Chawna and Daniel - Posted by: Mike and chawna wiseman (Friends) on: Jul 05, 2012

• Ed was the ringbearer at our wedding and has always held a special place in our hearts. Our love and prayers go out to his wife Kim, children Josh and Carly and to his mom Sharon and all the extended family. - Posted by: Sharon & Ted Wynne (Cousin) on: Jul 05, 2012

• I have many good memories of my growing up years. Ed and his friend taking Deb and I for a boot in his Barracuda in Unicity parking lot (which is pretty exciting as a young teen to hang with your older cousin in a cool car)or when Ed and Ken used to put Debbie and I on their shoulders in the pool for a game of chicken. Ed was like the big brother I never had, and knowing he is not down the road will always be in the back of my mind :( - Posted by: Sherry (Cousin) on: Jul 05, 2012

• My favorite memory of Ed was his repeated daring attempts to jump into the family pool from the roof of their home while his mother yelled for him to get down. I have great memories of my time spent at the Watts home. I remember Ed being a lot of fun to be around with a great sense of humour. Thinking of all of my extended family during this difficult time. Our prayers are with all of you. - Posted by: Lisa Moulton (Cousin) on: Jul 05, 2012

• Kim, As you know, I didn't know Ed, your hubby personally but, know from the stories you have shared how much you truly enjoyed one another and how close your family is. My heart hurts for what you are going through. I just wanted to send a big hug to you, Carly and Josh! - Posted by: Carmen Bresch (Co-worker/Friend of Kim's) on: Jul 05, 2012
