To Ed's family,
During his time at Utica National we became friends. Both being avid outdoorsmen, we had a lot in common and would talk often.
Unfortunately, I just found out about his passing. Your eulogy was spot-on when it came to Ed's work ethic and sense of humor. He was quick witted and always had something nice to say.
I hired him to re-do my front sidewalk. I still remember coming home late from work the first day and finding him still finishing the prep work. I made a comment in regard to all the jack-hammering he must have done to remove the old sidewalk. He said "this is my jack-hammer" and held up a huge 20 lb sledge hammer. He was drenched with sweat, but obviously proud of his progress.
The next day, I returned from work late again and found that he was finished with the work. He did a fantastic job! That was quite a few years ago, and it's still in great shape! I received a compliment from a neighbor and friend about his work and referred him for work they wanted done.
So, even while working a challenging full-time job, he worked his butt off to make sure mine was done quickly, and went home in the dark both days he worked on it.
He was a great guy, and I'll always remember his quick wit and friendly demeanor.
My sincere condolences on your loss!
Cliff Fletcher

Eulogy for Edgar L. Schloop
Written and read by his sister, Stephanie Schloop-Monescalchi
My family are all story tellers. We love to laugh and share memories. We laugh at my dad because he'll say did you ever hear or have i ever told you.. and it's a story the whole world has heard 95 times (haha).
One of his most absoulte favorite stories is of the day Eddie was born. He and his cousin Ricky, (My God Father) worked out of town together, so they came home together at the same time. Both of their wives became pregnant at the same time and they both each already had a daughter. On January 19th 1989 The pay phone at the hospital rings.. It was Ricky, "I GOT A BOY!" my dad replied "I GOT A BOY TOO!!" Both baby boys were born on the same day and they call themselves twin-cousins.
I think Eddie loved that story as much as my dad. He was so happy to have his boy, his name-sake.. really, a carbon copy.
I guess better than anyone, I can tell you about Eddie's childhood. His beginning. When Eddie was born he was like my shiny new toy, my prize. Throughout our lives, we shared whatever had had with each other and that started from when I was Just 2-years-old. I shared my bubble gum with him. I stuck around 6 pieces in his gummy baby mouth. Trying to share. My mother thankfully got it all out before he choked! (Haha).
We didn't have a whole lot growing up, but we always had eachother and whatever we had, we shared. From goodie bags from birthday parties to toys. As a teenager, I won $250 on a mega millions ticket. I cashed it, Eddie and I bought panera and we split the rest of the cash.
We faught like cats and dogs growing up, but would have given each other the shirts off our backs. We both enjoy helping people... never able to say no. Eddie would be on the phone making ten promises to ten people at the same time. I'd hear something like "yeah I'll come by tommorrow around 6" over and over. I'd say Eddie! what you you doing, you nut? you can't be everywhere at once. He’d laugh and say, I hate disappointing people, I'll make it there or I'll get to it. He'd then tell me he had to go ...and he'd be back tomorrow around 6. (Haha)-- I'd just shake my head and laugh.
He was so much like our grandfather in that way. We called him pop-pop and the name was so fitting bc he'd always pop in and pop out. "Gotta make the rounds!" he'd say. Trying to keep up with promises and expectations. Keeping everyone happy. They both were So carasmatic and charming. Eddie could charm his way out of anything!
As a kid, Eddie loved adventure. He and Matt ciecko built forts of various levels that scaled as high as the trees. As an adult, he worked for a company that at the time, build the biggest windmills in The Country. We have a picture of him sitting on one and he’s in the clouds. He loved climbing from when he was a little boy - always climbing something, getting as high as he could - making my mom crazy. He enjoyed playing sports and was a typical little boy.
My dad would take us every other weekend and we'd have the most crazy advetures with him. He'd plop us in a natural wading pool and fish in rushing waters next to it, He'd send us sleading down snowy hills in concrete pans. As kids, we had SO much fun. Looking back, its a wonder CPS wasnt called. (Haha).
At one time, my mother worked at Kaufman's for Christian Dior and would put our clothes for my dad's house in this canvas Dior tote bag. My dad wanted to go track deer but was alone with me, Eddie, and our brother Jimmy. So in the tote bag Jimmy goes!! My dad hung the bag with the baby in it around his neck, and we walked through fields for hourssss!
We sat under a tree and ate crab apples, even baby James, which then resulted in a lot of diaper changes following that. (Haha).
That was our childhood, you know? We weren't kept in a bubble. We survived and have so many stories that we sit around and laugh about over and over.
My father loves, loves, loves his kids. Each of us is special to him for different reasons. Eddie was his namesake and mini best friend. He went to work with my dad when he was little. He went everywhere with him. Eddie's love for baseball came from Pop-Pop, but hunting and fishing were his true passions and were shared with my dad. They never missed an opening day together and Eddie would have to get the best spot. They go salmon fishing every year. To say they were close is an understatement. My father lost a piece of himself. Eddie was like a limb. As Eddie got older, they worked out of town together and have so many stories. I don't believe anyone has actually heard them all, and as I mentioned, they both always loved to tell stories, so that's saying something.
I always joked that my mom loves me, but she LOVES Eddie. It never bothered me, but it was obvious. The sun rose and sat on Eddie. I love that he was loved so much. Eddie also loved my mom. He respected her so very much. She sacrificed so much for us our entire lives. She'd go without so we could have. That's a true definition of a mother - putting your children first. As adults, I matured, got married, had a family, but Eddie was a big kid. Failure to launch, we used to say, breaking his chops. Although he lived on his own, he still came to eat dinner at her house. My mom was in her glory to have him visit and eagerly cooked whatever he wanted. My mom lost her dinner date, her little boy. Please keep my parents in your prayers. They have suffered the unthinkable.
My grandmas are both broken-hearted. I remember my Grandma Susie teaching Eddie about money and which coins were which like it was yesterday. I can see them sitting in the living room. I can see him on the green chair we'd fight over. I can still feel him as I think back to playing our game "feet to feet" We called it. We'd hold hands and make each other fly like acrobats. I have his childhood, but as adults, all 5 of us siblings are extremely, extremely close. I don't think you could get closer than us. That was always so important to my dad. That his kids have loyalty and protected each other. He made us into an army for our family. We'd do anything for each other, and we all tried so hard to help Eddie find his way.
Eddie took everything to the next level, from his immaculate detail in his work to washing his trucks. He'd take time to do something correctly and to the best of his ability. The over-the-top personality also carried over to his partying as well, though. He loved to drink and have a good time. He loved his friends. Eddie Was The party. Live fast, die young. But he never wanted to die. As I mentioned, my family is close... we had countless deep conversations over the years. I knew Eddie - the other day a friend told me something assuming I didn't know. I knew everything, but we are a loyal vualt. We can talk about our brother, but no one else better.
Eddie was kind, pacient, caring and LOVED his neices and nephew, who recently learned how to say “Uncle Yetti” like the stickers he put on everything.
He'd come over every week with flowers, resses peanut butter cups and chocolate milk. He'd bring pizza, so I didn’t have to cook he'd say. He'd take my garbage out even though I never minded doing it. During the years my husband was out of town for work, Eddie truly tried to help me and my kids in any way. If I was on the phone with him and heard a random noise, he'd tell me he was coming right over to check it out. When I had covid, I told my husband to stay out of town so he wouldn't get sick.. I ended up getting sick-sick and couldn't get out of bed. Eddie came into our germ ridden house and brought us food and offered to watch the girls so I could go to the Doctor. Like my mother, Eddie saw germs, so for him to do that really took me by suprise.
He would wear socks at the water park so he wouldn't get "fugas feet". We broke his chops so bad about that. We LOVE to break chops in our family. You better have thick skin if you come over. We lived with our dad for a bit and he'd drive us back to Utica every morning for school because I liked to um, -miss it. One Morning, the radio was on in my dad's small pick up. All three of us were sitting accross with me in the middle. The song "Your Body is a wonderland" came on and I Don't know what the Heck Eddie was doing but he drifted off somewhere and sang the song while gazing out of the window. I looked at him, Looked at my dad, elbowed him to look at Eddie and our Laughter could have been heard across town! Oh my gosh I laughed so hard mocking him "Your body is a wonderrr landddd" I jokingly sang. He then started to punch my arm yelling at me. Haha ah, I love that story.
He was especiually close to my oldest daughter Arabella. She always said Uncle Eddie was like her second dad. He filled in for everything when my husband was working and unable to be there. He beamed with pride when she asked him to come to preschool for a Father's Day celebration.
He loved my kids as if they were his own. He never missed an Easter egg hunt or bringing over the biggest pumpkins he could find and meticulously carved them with power tool contraptions he'd make. We had a carving contect every year, I was detrimed to beat him, but his pumkins were always so much better - by a lot. He went trick-or-treating with us every year. He'd get matching PJs with the kids. One Christmas, he and Arabella had matching Rudolph onesies on, complete with the big red shiny nose on the hood. He never cared about messes or spending money on them, just as long as they had fun.
He would try to give me money, and I never wanted to take it. He'd say, "Stephanie, if I could give you a million dollars to repay you for all that you've done for me, I would." He'd say, "I love you more than anyone in this world." I knew he loved me, but I thought that was just an overused phrase like "I'll see you tomorrow at 6." But before he passed, he told my mom that about me. He knew I loved him unconditionally. Unconditional love is rare, but I did. There was nothing he could have done to change that. I believed in him and wanted so much better for him because I knew he was better. He was so intelligent. I felt like a dope next to him. He wasn't socially awkward like I am. He was picture-perfect with a heart as big as his grin.
We're here today because his demons won. A son, brother, grandson, uncle, and friend was lost. Please save your judgment, but be aware of the dangers. This is a different world we are living in today with evil all around us. Eddie never judged anyone, EVER.
He was the least judgmental person I know, truly. Please take a look at my family, how broken we are.. we won't ever be the same. Nothing will ever be 100% happy again. Every event and celebration for the rest of our lives will be a little sad because Eddie isn't there.
Eddie has now reached the highest height. He's looking down on us today and saying not to be sad. He hated whenever anyone was upset. I've been hearing his voice say, "Don't cry, Stephanie." I know he's okay.
The living are the ones who suffer, but I'll try, for him, not to cry.
We love you, Eddie.
