I Miss EdF

[gmascolo51]

Sad news. He actually lived about 5 minutes away from me, sad that we never were able to meet up in person.

[Mr. Bones]

Tragic, indeed, given y'alls proximity......

[Spinaker]

Damn. He was a good man, and a great contribution of our community. We will be missed.

Keep the Smoke Rollin', Ed.

[Mr. Bones]

Very eloquent...

[painter]

A real loss...

[holehogg]

My wife gave EdF the nickname Beard of wisdom after I had showed her a post he commented on when I first joined the club. Said Ed reminded her of the guy from Pawn Stars. It was an honour and pleasure to make your acquaintance.
RIP Sir.

It's a Francis Mallmann recipe from the book Seven Fires (which I now have) but it was Ed who recommended it when I asked about peach recipes. He sent me the version of it from his Evernote file. Here's the same thing from NYT.

That looks fabulous! Will definitely be doing this sometime soon. Thanks!

[Jim White]

A friend just picked up some fresh Georgia peaches for us. I'll definitely cook this in tribute to him this weekend.

I'll make this in Ed's memory. It's just one of Ed's many excellent tips and recommendations here on the pit.

I felt so bad and so sad last evening that I missed the toast to Ed by CaptainMike and Mr. Bones due to a slight miss calculation. In other words I started way before you guys....and welll...chaulk it up to an epic fail.....




...anyway here's to you EdF, wherever you might be !!! (I think he would appreciate a little humor at this point )

[CaptainMike]

Better late than never, my friend! Thanks for the chuckle, I'm sure 'ol Ed would have approved.

[Mr. Bones]

Never too late, Steve......
Cheers

I’m not sure how I missed this but it is another reminder how wonderful you all are….and this forum isn’t just a BBQ site.

RIP EdF.

[ofelles]

It's the strongest I drink these days and this one is for EdF

[Mr. Bones]

Cheers, to Ed F...

[Mr. Bones]

wanted to try one these here sarsparillas, six pack was only 12.99, not too danged awkward, but shipping was like 19.85...effdat...

[Locotech]

Real sorry to hear this, Ed's posts always had something enlightening, and after I read his obit. I understood why. What a background. R.I.P Ed.....

[JCBBQ]

Wow. This really is sad. We joined the Pit around the same time, both live in NJ, he was a kamado guy, and I 100% credit him for planting the seed in my brain about getting a KBQ. As I don’t have a name for it, I’ll call it Ed…as in EdF and education. His posts were always thoughtful and I usually learned something from them.

RIP big fella.

[realdocBBQ]

Sad I missed this. Dangit. Yes, EdF you will be missed, sir.

[Mr. Bones]

As long as yer livin
It's Never too late
To hoist a glass
To a fallen mate...

Sláinte!

[SmokeyNate]

Oh man, I missed this post earlier and have wondered why we haven't heard from him. He was one of the reasons I purchased a KBQ! EdF You will be missed my friend.

[Steve R.]

On one hand, I'm sorry to have brought this up again. On the other hand, I'm glad to have brought this to the attention to those who may have missed the sad news.

[Mr. Bones]

No worries, amigo...

Time Marches On...

[Steve R.]

I am reminded of my favorite motivational speech ever, Mr. Bones : https://youtu.be/nQbf0aDu1P8

[Mr. Bones]

Noice!

[hoovarmin]

Goodbye Ed, and thank you for being the amazing person you are. See you on the other side, amigo.

[HawkerXP]

We will be in SAV the end of April,

[hoovarmin]

Thanks, smokenoob! Hope you are as well.

[hoovarmin]

HawkerXP I'd love to get together for that

[Davek8282]

RIP EdF you will be missed.
