The CatalystforGrowth S Change from The Editor, Ryan Davis Last Monday night, I was on the phone with a friend of mine from Tropic, and our discussion turned towards Panguitch Resident & Businessman, "Ed Mock". I mentioned how impressed I was by something Ed had done fora friend of his, and then my friend inserted the question, "How is Ed was doing?" / thought to Beaver, Utah 84713 SO East Center St. myself, "Ed is Ed!" He is probably doing great! 435-31O-OO8B 435-438-5900 But I inquisitively asked, "what do you mean how is Ed doing?" He explained that Ed had suffered massive heart attack on December 20th. my heart sunk! I call myself a friend, and had no idea. I was very bothered at myself, and I had to know how Ed was doing right then.

Frustrated, I decided to Delivery available to all areas!!!t wait until the following morning. Then finally I got a hold of Ed's wife. She told me that he was in one of a bunch of ongoing rehabilitation sessions in St. George. Of course, about a half hour later, Ed called me back. It was great to hear his voice. He mentioned he was doing a bit better, but I could tell in his voice the tole that Put in for heart attack had taken. I got a huge lump in my throat. a drawing for I really enjoy stopping in to shoot the bull with Ed, but his truck hasn't been at Microfiber Sofa & Loveseat Royal Express for the past couple of months. I kept thinking Oh, they are a FREE probably taking some time off to enjoy life. Every time I was in town, I would while Grandfather drive by the shop looking for that emaculate truck of his (and it wasn't there). All supplies last! Clock! the time thinking, Hm? Maybe he'll be there next time. You see, I visit Panguitch about every other week, and Ed has generously befriended me since I started the Garfield Insider nearly two years ago. I am so impressed with Eds' straight forward personality and candidness. It is refreshing to me, because I know where I stand with him. Ed tells it just like it is. This is a rare thing in todays society. People hold back from telling you something, because they are afraid of offending you. I don't have to guess about what Ed is thinking. It's just straight shootin, and occassionally I take it between the eyes, but that is OK. From religion to politics, from family to friends, from flying to hunting, I thoroughly enjoy listening to his perspectives. Ed is friendly, honest, and a bit like "Simon " on American Idol.
