March 1, 1929 – October 6, 2013
Ed was born March 1, 1929 in Jamaica. At the age of 17 his mother brought him to the U.S., where he was trained as a private chef. It was discovered that he had a good singing voice, and he was given a scholarship to travel in Europe training and singing professionally. He moved to San Francisco in 1971, and this became his beloved home. Ed loved life with a passion that is rarely seen. He will be missed.
