I was close friends with Al, since he lived in Maryland and did the shows I promote. I didn't know Ed well, just from the Baltimore shows over the years.
Both Al and Ed were assets to numismatics. My condolences to their families and friends.

I learned of this last weekend and was very saddened to hear it. I knew them both and both were class acts! Ed Kuzmar, I believe, started the Baltimore coin show. At least he was in it very early. And Johnbrier was a fixture at all of the local shows who was always fair to everyone.
