    backup got a reaction from sonofbear in Edmiston Drive   
    Thanks gogzy for you and other admin reinstating ED when I told you how ill he was all those weeks ago. He really appreciated you doing so, it kept him mentally alert by being back here,, he loved every minute of it and his wind-ups.
    He bore no malice to anyone and would phone me about his “bites”? must confess I joined in, the bluesome twosome he called us?
    Not much more to say at this point other than the toxins are now attacking his brain and he is heavily sedated, Jacquie is with him at his bedside.
    Also a mention for Host, who has been helping keep ED’s spirits up through this very sad time, hoping for a miracle...

    Thought posters might like to put a face to the name, checked if it was okay to do so, it is.
    Something most won’t know about ED is that he was at N’castle after leaving school, he was offered terms but his mother decided he was getting a real job in the bank.
    He was a big lump of a lad even then, typical battering ram centre forward of that era and skill to go with it, who knows what could have been, hope you like the fotie from last year, keep rockin’ big chap ?

    Before there was such a thing as agents big Tam used to do many of The Rangers players finances like pensions and investments, he counted many of them as good friends, whom he socialised with down through the years...he wasn’t averse to a bit name dropping about it either ?

    After that wee wobble, those are the arrangements at this moment in time. If there are any changes Jacquie will let us know.
    Jacquie is knocked out by the esteem that Tam is held in by so many here, a great comfort to her ?

    Direct cremation arrangements finalised yesterday, no service or funeral, as per Tam’s wishes.
    His ashes will be scattered at various places he requested, Ibrox hopefully too.
    Tam left money to Erskine, McMillan nurses and Roxburgh House Hospice, I am sure he would be happy for anyone who wishes to remember him in some way, to make a small contribution to any of those worthy causes.

    Having ,chatted, argued, agreed, disagreed, swore at, laughed at and now cried at some of his antics, it pains me to say how much a loss he will be to those who thrived off his passion and drive for the Rangers, his Rangers. The man was a leg-end in every sense of the word, even those who wanted to rip his head off at times had admiration for the man. Ed never ever ever let anything go and never forgot a good word or a bad one. His memory was legendary, his humour sublime...I will miss you bro, gone but definitely never forgotten, rest well big man, lots are feeling your loss. GSTQ
