Dear Donna, I have thought of you many, many times over these years. You were one of my favorite friends going back to DE and the 50's. WOW! I am so sorry to hear about Ed. He was a nice guy and I had a great deal of respect for him. I have know Ed for many years also but after graduation in 1970 you and Ed disappeared. We must have traveled in very different circles. In any event I just heard about Ed and I could not let the day go by without sending you a note. If you ever have the chance drop me a line at snapusa@rochester.rr.com. I'll send you a copy of my latest book.
Again Donna I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Ed was so young. Please know that even though many years have passed I have not forgotten about you and I pray you are at peace. Sending you a smile and hug.
All the best, Your long time friend, Eddie Gartz

Fortuna Family,
Thinking of you all and sending prayers for healing hearts. Edgie was such a nice man, a big teddy bear just like his brother. He was known and loved by so many. We are thinking especially of Donna, Lisa and family, Penny, and Bob, Linda, Alissa and Todd who our family has known for decades.
God bless you all during this difficult time.
Love and sunshine from your friends in California,

Dad-
You've impacted my life in so many ways. I am so appreciative for the memories you gave me to hold onto. You were loved by many and your presence brightened the room. I hope you realize how much you'll be missed here. Your friends and family love you greatly. For me, you'll be the huggable, lovable man I called "Dad". Im not ready to say goodbye to you, so instead Ill say "until we meet again."

Dear God,
We have sent to you a man of soul and honesty. He was a man who gave his gifts of music art to anyone who wanted it. His humor was a way of presenting himself to his family and friends. He was my best friend for over 45 years and my husband of 43. He was a good man in the eyes of those that knew and loved him.. I will miss his face each day for the rest of my life.
Love Donna

Our mind is a tricky thing. It reduces lifetimes to snippets of memories making years ago feel like days ago. I wanna take time to recognize the loss of a wonderful person, friend, mentor, a second dad to me growing up. I realize it has been 4 years since I last saw him. I realize that I am 800 miles away but the loss of Edward Fortuna is far reaching. My wife woke me up at 2 am and told me the news. To say the least it was a solemn, glum day. I don't think it was a coincidence that all day it stayed dark here in Knoxville Tn. It seems like yesterday that I was DJ'ing and matching wits with Ed. He always treated me like an equal even if I was 25 years his junior. Those are the memories I have of Ed. He was someone that always opened his door and his heart to me. Someone that I respected and admired. Someone that always greeted me with a smile and a handshake. My deepest sympathies and condolences go out to Donna, Michael, & Lisa and the rest of the family. Its truly a sad day :(

Mike, Lisa, Donna and family, words can not express how my heart breaks for you during this difficult time. Ed was an amazing man and Heaven is very lucky to have an angel of his caliber. He is gone but is never forgotten. Keep his corny jokes going. He always knew how to make me laugh. I love you guys so much!

I met this man as a boy and he was one of the kindest, soft hearted good people I have had the privilege to be around. I was lucky to have him as an Uncle and every joke, no matter how many times I heard it, made me laugh and smile, that's what I will miss more than anything, his ability to bring light heartedness to any situation. I pray for Aunt Donna and Lisa and Mike that they find solace in the fact he's in heaven with Grandma Ruth and Grandpa Ed, looking down on us as our family Saint. I love you Always Uncle Edgie.
