Condolences

Condolence From: Michele Aveline
Condolence: I know time has gone by, but I wanted to leave a note all the same. Sadly I did not hear of Eds passing. I met Ed through my Grandmother Jean A. at the Lodge Street building. I remember him as a man full of kindness! He always had a joke or a story to tell. He would sometime slip a toonie into my son Matthews hand (Who was then a small boy) and tell him to put it away for safe keeping :) They would chat about their shared love for hockey and Ed was always making my son laugh. I feel blessed to have met Ed and spent many hours chatting with him over the years myself while my Grandmother was still living. Truly a one of a kind and most memorable man with a heart fulled smile. May he be resting in peace. My condolences to his family.

Condolence From: Anna Dinardo-Contini
Condolence: I am so heart broken to hear of Eddy’s passing. I have very fond memories of him when he came to our house on many occasions to visit. It was always a surprise when he would arrive, and when I or my brother Tony, or my sister Lorretta would answer the door, we would squeal “EDDY”with joy to see him. We would always hug onto him the entire time he was with us and he very much enjoyed that. Eddy and my father Anthony Dinardo have been friends for many years. In fact my father passed away on May 15, 2019, just 4 months before Eddy. I hope they have connected on the other side. My sister also passed away on September 29, 2009. Eddy didn’t know that though. God bless you Eddy. We love you with all our hearts and think of you often. We have many pictures of you during your visits and will always cherish them. Love Always, Anna & Tony Dinardo

Condolence From: Joni (Macchioni) Rockhill
Condolence: Eddie was a hockey player for the Hershey Bears Farm Team in my hometown of Hershey PA in the 50’s/60’s. My father Nordi Macchioni who passed away in 1964, held in high regard Eddie’s friendship and with his brother Myron, who also played for The Bears, as well as the kinship with his sister “Vi” (Violet) Altman and her husband Herb. After my Daddy passed, Eddie had a close friendship with my dearest mother Gemma Rose Macchioni, and visited Hershey annually long after he moved on from playing and coaching for other hockey clubs as well as after his retirement. When Eddie wasn’t able to make the long drive to Hershey, they kept in touch via telephone. For as long as I can recall, we had very endearing and interesting, thought provoking talks with Eddie and his sister & family when they visited our home in Hershey. EVERY YEAR without fail, my mother treasured the yearly visits by putting out the red carpet with delicious homemade Italian meals. She valued close friendships that were maintained; after his sister Vi passed away, they kept in touch. Eddie was a highly intelligent, well spoken, calm, genuine, and a gentle soul, who never had a bad thing to speak of anyone. (Well... everyone except maybe not The NY Rangers!) His pleasant demeanor could not be matched. I will miss our talks, when I would call him, especially during The Stanley Cup Playoffs. Bless your soul, Eddie.

Condolence From: Deborah A. Ertel
Condolence: I am so sorry to learn of Eddie's death.My sincere condolences to the family. I had just met Eddie about 2 weeks ago in the gazebo behind the building. My brother had just died and I was cleaning out his things and took a break outside. There sat Eddie. What a wonderful gentle man. He had such kind words to share with me. Strangely, we also talked about Life Line and Executors. Eddie impressed me with his "feisty factor", that passion to be active and keep going. He loved his walks and his long soothing baths after the walk. I'm returning to KW on Wednesday to finish cleaning out my brother's place and was looking forward to meeting up with him again. I'm sorry that won't happen. But I will remember that brief friendship we shared and his comforting words and how he made me laugh when I was surely down.
