I worked with Ed for many years at the City of London and always looked forward to our morning chats and his wonderful sense of humour. Tom and I send hugs and condolences to Shirley and the family.

To Ed’s family, I had the pleasure of working with Ed for many years at the City of London. His humour was a blessing. His laughter infectious. You didn’t have to see him to know he was there! Such a great man. May you cherish the memories you made with Ed. You are in my thoughts and in my prayers. Michelle Masse
