My parents bought a property in the late 60s and at the other end of the street Edward operated his antiques business. It felt like there was a constant flow of Ford Transit vans and antique dealers waiting for Edward to open. He had a unique ability to buy whatever was offered to him rather than picking what he wanted. He inspired lots of people to work for themselves and on a personal level have a lot to be thankful to him for. He had the ability to communicate with people on all social levels.
