Ed passed away this morning following a hemorrhagic stroke last week. Services are Saturday at 2 at Mills River River Presbyterian Church just west of Asheville.

Ed was a long time judge, mainly in the southeast and east coast. Back in the day, he was the only source of throwing weights. He also published the blue book of rules, the original rules we all followed in the last century.

Ed did a lot for us all. Thanks for spreading the word, Satch.
