  15. Really can’t believe this has happened, having worked with Ed for the last couple of years only, I can attest that he was the nicest most helpful and calming member of our team. In fact I would say that for not just our team but in general. Ed would always be the first to put his hand up to cover or help a colleague out and for us as a team to be feeling so lost from this, I can’t imagine the void that his family and friends must be feeling. I know that words can’t help in matters like this but I’m so very sorry and sending love to you all.

  19. Ed was the kindest most supportive member across the Vendor Management Team, he made an impact on everyone he worked with and was truly genuine in everything he did. He cheered the team with his gif’s and it was a joy always to hear his chuckle. He will be very much missed here at LSEG and we are thankful we got to be part of his life for the past 2 or so years. Sending our love and support to you all,
