Default RIP Big Ed
We lost one of the best crew members in offshore. Big Ed was on my team for many many years and drove the rig with Trophy. He had to stop driving do to health issues and moved to Florida. Last night he passed away and is joined again with his BFF Trophy. If you don't remember him he was the 6' 8" 400 lb man that had hands the size of bear paws. He didn't talk much unless he got to know you. If he liked you he really liked you. That was his style. If anyone has a pic they can post of him please do. I don't know how.
