Recently, Colorado Springs lost a man, but gained communication, love, and acceptance. Ed Metzger was a man that kept to himself unless one of the many teenage boys that came and went, needed his attentive ear. He was quick to listen, and slow to speak, but when he did speak the boys hung on every word. Below is a tribute written by one of those boys, and reflects the thoughts and feelings of all of those who knew Ed, and still Love him. Because of his Love we have established the Ed Metzger Memorial Fund, Donations can be made at any TCF Bank or on the Ed Metzger Memorial Web site at www.edmetzger.homestead.com.

"This goes out to a great man that has left us all recently. He was one of the most caring people in this world today . Ed was a wonderful father to us all, even if we weren't family. He was a great man of God and i know he is at rest now, but no matter what, we will always remember him. We will miss your presence and enlightenment.
We Love And Miss You Ed Metzger.
Love alway s Caleb"
