Condolence From: Mary & Jim Brindley
Condolence: Ed Bernard married us in 1985. He was our pastor at Wendell Ave Alliance church for several years. His teaching was unique and we learned much from God's Word. We lost touch for many years, but will always remember him as a dear, godly man. He will be very missed.

Condolence: This poem is dedicated to my good friend and spiritual mentor, Reverend Edd. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and love with us all!!!

The Revv

Being raised in a poor family
He went through some hard knocks.
That scrawny little kid
Eventually learned how to box.

Even though he was so skinny
And weighed around 80 pounds damp.
In the ring he was huge,
Boxing like a real champ.

Throughout his boxing career
He became quite the contender.
On the outside he appeared quite tough,
But inside, his heart was always tender.

He had a real love for America,
Proud to be in the land of the free.
Soon he joined the service
And fought to keep our country free.

Serving our country with pride
He fought many battles and never ran.
In time his service was done
And he retired an honored veteran.

Although his service ended
His battles were far from done.
He then was in a battle for his kids,
A long fight for custody that he won.

He loved being a father
And tried to be the best Dad.
He didn't want his children
To go through the troubles he had.

Then he soon discovered
A spiritual calling for his life.
A way to make a positive use
Of all his trouble and strife.

To a life of spiritual service
For his LORD, he was recruited.
He was trained in the truth of the Bible
And became known as Reverend Edd.

The LORD was the love of his life,
As evident when he ministered to you.
But then he discovered another love
When he met a girl called Peggy Sue.

He liked telling many stories,
And each time more details would develop.
Once he started talking
You couldn't get him to shut up.

He had a strange sense of humor
And liked making people smile.
He shared countless posts on Facebook
Like it was going out of style.

Reverend Edd was truly great,
So loving, genuine and real.
His heart was softened because
Of his wounds he allowed the LORD to heal.

Although he went through many battles
And victories came with a great cost,
He had always fought the good fight
And his faith was never lost!!!
