    Mike, I am so sorry about the loss of your dad. I've come to know you so much more than when you and Chuck were in school together, through our many conversations and contact concerning the POW camp, prisoners, etc. ... and the pride you felt for your dad was always so obvious in our talks. He was such a fine and successful man and father. You and Leslie can feel much comfort in knowing that.

    Ed Pomeroy was not only one of the nicest, kindest persons I've ever met, but he personified the Jordan Standard of SigmeaChi.
  3. John Porter Price
    The best way to describe Ed Pomeroy is that he was a true gentlemen. He was a tribute to the forestry profession which he loved. I will always remember him as a friend.

    To the family--- We have not known Mr. Pomeroy for a long time,( but since we moved to his neighborhood 2 yrs ago.. 2 houses down from him) he has been a great neighor. Always so pleasant and sweet. He loved our Border Collie "Heidi" and when he went for his walks he always stopped at the end of our driveway to give her treats! I just lost my mom March 29th.. she was 74. So I know the pain you are going through. May God comfort you at this time in your lives.. and bring you peace knowing that he was a kind and loving man who lived a great life!
