For a man of his remarkable accomplishments in life, he was one of the most humble people I have ever met. For as long as I’ve known him, Ed was an elder statesman of the Fraternity. He completed his service on the Arch Chapter when I was only 13 years old, preparing to transition from junior high to high school, and before I even really knew what a fraternity was. When I be- came active as an alumni volunteer, Ed was there with support and to offer advice. After join- ing the Arch Chapter, I got to know him better, and learn firsthand of his wisdom, his kindness, and his deep love of our brotherhood. Over the course of the past few years, and particularly as I served in place of Jim Selzer during his last illness, and now as president, I called on him for advice. He could always be relied upon for sound judgment, but only if advice was sought. He did not impose his views or tell you what you should be doing. During our last phone call about a month before he died, I asked him for advice with respect to an issue facing the Arch Chapter. Instead of telling me what he would do, he asked me what I thought I should do, and only then would he give me his opinion. It was very reassuring to hear Ed say: “I think you’re doing the right thing.” I am glad to have known Ed, proud to call him my brother, and privileged to have him as a friend and mentor. Our brotherhood has had its share of “giants.” Without question, Ed was one. He was the embodiment of phrases that run through Delt-speak—a Good Delt, a patrician soul, a man who lived an unselfish and noble life. He modeled the values we seek to instill in all our members. He is a man we cannot forget to remember, because all of us, young and old alike, should continue to emulate his example of service. The Chapter Eternal is a richer place with Ed around. Our job is to ensure that all he gave to our brother- hood lives on. p Alan Brackett International President 4 | THE RAINBOW p WINTER 2012 The Rainbow PUBLISHER Ohio State Delts Run Marathon Jim Russell The brothers of Beta Phi recently had EDITOR Brook Pritchett eight brothers participate in the Na- tionwide Columbus Marathon and International Officers half-Marathon.
