Update 9/11/18 from Pat Morgan:
I spoke with Cristina Lane which is Ed gillingham's daughter. She was willing to let me have her home address so that our classmates who are not going to attend the visitation or funeral could drop her and her brother Mark Gillingham a personal note. So addressed to each of them and care of Cristina. The address is 136 Bluegrass Road Elizabethtown Kentucky 42701.

It was such a pleasure getting to know Ed through the reunion committee. He was such a loyal member and so helpful. He put up a heck of a fight with his health issues and was always upbeat. We will miss him so much.

We saw the brick honoring Ed at the Waggener High football field when we attended the Homecoming game.
