| Edward Felix Nylec was born to Mary Casolari and Felix Nylec. He attended Andrew High School and was the football captain. His number was #74. He later went on to coach and play semi-pro football. Despite an inability to express himself well at times, Ed had a heart of gold buried under expectations that pulled him in different directions. He wanted to be a good son as well as a devoted husband and father. He had a wounded and gentle heart and soul but suffered much agony. As his wife, I saw the most intimate parts of Ed. But I wouldn't let my stubborn self see all of the pain he felt and the tears he shed over our Triplet daughters' deaths. He loved me and his children dearly and was as devoted as he could understand his role to be, despite conflicting ideas from others close to him. He was a gentle soul fighting to please the people he loved. He was tortured in his mind and heart. Boy don't I miss him for the adoration he showed and the lost potential of the greatness he possessed. He loved his children and mourned their deaths as well as the loss of his parents. There is so much I'd do differently if Ed and our family had a second chance. I hope I can teach people from our mistakes and bring some gain from our losses. I don't blame you one bit for leaving this earth. Please pray for Ed to find peace in heaven with himself and his family. Sincerely, Jena Nylec |
| Our First Dance "I'll Always Love You" by Taylor Dayne I'll always love you for the rest of my days. You have won my heart and my soul with your sweet, sexy ways. You gave me hope when I needed someone near. You bring me happiness every day of every year. I'll always love you for all that you are. You have made my life complete, you're my lucky star. You are the one that I've been searching for. You are my everything, tell me who could ask for more. And I'll always love you, Honey, this will never end. I need you by my side, baby, you're my lover, my friend. My friend. You gave my world a thrill I've never known. And filled my eager heart with a love to call my own. And I'll always love you, you must know how much I do. I'll always love you, I'm so happy that you're mine. I'll always love you, yes, till the end of time. |
| That's Why I'm Here by Kenny Chesney Well I ain't had nothing to drink I knew that's probably what you'd think If I dropped by this time of night Remember way back when I promised you I'd drop in At one of those meetings down at the Y Well, they started talkin' bout steps you take Mistakes you make The hearts you break And the price you pay I almost walked away You could hear a pin drop When this old man Stood up and said I'm gonna' say it again Like I do every week For those who don't know me It's the simple things in life Like the kids at home and a loving wife That you miss the most, when you lose control And everything you love starts to disappear The devil takes your hand and says no fear Have another shot, just one more beer Yeah, I've been there, that's why I'm here This ol’ boy stood up in the aisle Said he'd been living a life of denial And he cried as he talked about wasted years I couldn't believe what I heard It was my life word for word And all of the sudden it was clear It's the simple things in life Like the kids at home and a loving wife That you miss the most, when you lose control And everything you love starts to disappear Have another shot, just one more beer Yeah, I've been there, that's why I'm here I know for us it may be too late But it would mean the world to me If you were there when I stand to say It's the simple things in life Like the kids at home and a loving wife That you miss the most, when you lose control And everything you love starts to disappear The devil takes your hand and says no fear Have another shot, just one more beer Yeah, I've been there, that's why I'm here |
"Saw a man in the movies that didn't have a heart How I wish I could give him mine Then I wouldn't have to feel it breaking all apart And this emptiness inside would suit me fine It's times like these I wish I were the tin man You could hurt me all you wanted I'd give anything just to be the tin man And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't need a soul Well I'd give anything just to be the tin man And I wouldn't have a heart and I wouldn't miss you so" From the song "Tin Man" by Kenny Chesney |
I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears" "These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase" From the son "My Immortal" by Evanescence |

| The funny thing about this is that when we had to put our German Shepard to sleep for biting people, Ed said that he HAD TO get another big dog. Do you know how many pictures I have of him holding our Boston Terriers...on the riding lawn mower, while on the computer, while driving...yeah Ed, you had to have a big dog, right. =) |
