Uncle Ed (Edward Henry Sprick, Oct. 28, 1910-Jan. 20, 1985) of Lake City, Minn.) has been dead for more than 20 years. But nobody who knew him will ever forget him. He was a gritty, gravely-voiced, tough, kind man who knew the land and the human soul like the back of his weathered hands. He was full of shrapnel and wisdom. He had no children, but all of his nieces and nephews are his children.
