R.I.P. Ed Zieg

Our friend Charles Edward "Ed" Zieg, born in 1941, husband of interior designer Nancy Zieg, died this past week of lung cancer. Ed was a tall drink of water, a good ole boy and we loved his wry sense of humor. Mike and I are happy we got to know Ed over dinners with Nancy.

About two years ago, while out walking with Nancy, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He had it checked and doctors discovered lung cancer on a lobe of his lung. He had it removed and underwent chemo and hoped they had the cancer licked. A subsequent checkup by the doctor last summer found that the cancer had returned. This time the doctors didn't give him much time to live. We will miss him and miss the dinners we could have had together. Our hearts go out to Nancy and their four children and their extended family.

A celebration of his life will be held at 1:00, Tuesday Jan 16th, at Adams Chapel in River View Funeral Home on SW Taylors Ferry Rd.
