My sincere condolences to you Wendall and family. As a kid of 12 or 13, I still have fond memories of Ed & Matilda in the variety store in Glencoe, and his mini-putt putt in the back yard. Sorry for your loss, we will see you for the Legion Service.
I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s an honour to have known and cared for Mr. Edward Holody. He will be missed and remembered. Rest In Peace Eddie. Thank you for your service.

So sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing Jim. Wonderful photo of him in his uniform…you’ll miss him and the people at Parkwood I’m sure. The memories you’ve gathered together over the years will be forever cherished.
Jim,
Todd and I would like to pass along our sincere condolences.
Ed’s was a life well lived. Ed’s entrepreneurial spirit, quest for creating a better life for those he loved and talent for ‘fixing things’ lives on in you and Robert.
I am honoured to have spent time with your parents through many joint Holody/Manning celebrations.
If I might share a reflection, the love you and Sydney demonstrated to your Dad and Mom during their lives was overwhelming.
I trust, that your incredible devotion to your parents will give you comfort during this difficult time.
God Bless,
Marcia & Todd
