View all 16 ReflectionsI remember Ed as my Dad,Tim Harris', partner when I was young. My youngest son has Parker as his first name because of Ed. My father passed away 3 months ago and in the months prior he talked about The Parkers and wondered how the family was. His family and he will always be in our hearts.
