JAMES G. NEFF, RET SCPO SUNSET, TEXAS December 24, 2012 3:59 PM		I have only pleasant memories of the Commander, as one of his Chiefs. We were friends for many years and I had several occasions that I was able to see him long after our tour together. I still remember him taking me to school at basketball one midnight hour just to show me he could still get it done. I will miss him. Glen

He was mischievous and full of life. More than once the police turned up at our door to ask where he was. He was tall and very handsome. He was a great athlete and there seemed to be nothing he couldn't do. When my mother went into assisted living she would wait for Ed to come to take her to church because she knew he would get her what she wanted. Ed was a hero in every sense of the word. I cannot believe that he is gone from us. He came to Alaska to visit us more than anyone else and he brought his boys. Ginny came the last time. Ed, we will miss you and I love you as ever.

When I was about 10 and he was 14 he invited me to stay over for the weekend. Sat. he took me to play baseball with his friends and made sure I was included-my big cousin. Sunday, Aunt Elenor gave us each $ .50, which I'm pretty sure was for the collection. We walked a mile to church. When the collection plate came I put my $.50 in and Ed looked at me and thougt I was a dead cousin. When we got out of church, he said the money was for donuts. We stopped for donuts and Ed gave me one of the two donuts he could buy but gave me a lecture on the walk home. Loved it and admired him more.

I remember your mom making us lunch back in San Vito and I of course remember going to school with you two. If your dad is anything like you, he was a wonderful person. My deepest condolences go out to you and your family. Lia (Green) Mack

Bob Moseley Arnold, MD September 15, 2012 10:11 AM		My deepest condolences to the Streiff family. Ed was my boss back in the NAVSEGRU days and it was a pleasure to work with him. His big heart and sense of humor, along with his super leadership, kept all of us both fully engaged and fully entertained. He will be missed by all of us. Bob Moseley
Karla Nemec Columbia, MD September 14, 2012 8:41 AM		My deepest sympathies. Ed was the calm in the beltway storm, always the shipmate to keep you on course. God speed him on his final voyage and grant peace to those left behind. Karla Nemec
Steve and Nancy Parode September 13, 2012 10:12 PM		We remember Ed and all of you fondly from our San Vito days. The years have passed, but the happy memories from NSGA San Vito and the base chapel remain. Ed was an exemplary CO and a wonderful husband and father. He was a great role model for officers, chiefs and sailors. Ed gave so much for his country and his Navy. We wish him fair winds and following seas as he meets Our Lord and shares in His Resurrection. Our prayers are with all of you at this sad time, and we will remember Ed's soul in our prayers from this time onward.
Gayla Collins Hurdle Mills, NC September 13, 2012 9:13 PM		I am so sorry to hear about your loss. We will remember your family in prayer. Gayla & Burnie Collins
