Ebenezer (“Ben”) Edwards has passed away

A message from Pia Raymond, LMA Vice President:

As Vice President of the Lefferts Manor Association, it is with a heavy heart that I announce the untimely passing of our President, Ebenezer Edwards. “Ben,” or “Eddie,” as he was known to many, was a stalwart leader in our community. I join with our board members and community in grieving his loss. Further details about a celebration of his life are forthcoming. May he rest in power.

Blessings,
Pia J. Raymond, LMA Vice President
