little about just about everything. he could talk to anyone. loved the grateful dead, he loved good food. he was a huge anthony bourdain fan. more than that, though, ed loved to listen. when he asked even the simplest things like, how are you doing? or how is the family? he really cared about the answer. it wasn t just a a nicety. he really listened. for more than 20 years, until his sudden and untimely passing which is, frankly, incomprehensible to all of us who worked with ed and cared about ed dying over the weekend, we were his family and we always will be. and right now, we, as a family, here we miss him terribly. he was a great, lovely, sweet, kind, smart, and funny man and he will be forever missed. this is don lemon tonight. thank you for joining. here is our breaking news.
