Condolences

Condolence From: Karen Hire
Condolence: I had not seen Ned since I left Meyers & McCarthy (and Ft. Wayne) in 1982 but clearly remember his passion for merchandise presentation. My young co-workers don't believe stories of dress shirts behind counters and ties in cases. I had the opportunity to work for and learn from a consummate professional. I'm thinking of him, his family, and all my old friends today.

Condolence From: Phil Paino
Condolence: Ned was my very first boss at Heider Men's Wear on North Anthony in the summer of 1969. I had just graduated from High School preparing to go away to college. I worked all summer and ended up having to pay Ned because of all the clothes I purchased while working for him. Because of Ned Heider I have continued to carry that obsession for clothes for 47 years. I seriously want to convey that Ned was a very positive influence and role model in my life as a young man. I will treasure my memories of that first job, meeting a man who I sought to emulate, and the great times with Uncle Eddie. My prayers are with you and your family along with my appreciation. Thanks for the memories Phil Paino.

Condolence: I was one of the best dressed man in Fort Wayne that Ned Hyder clothed. As a very young attorney, Ned always made me look prosperous. Even though I have not talked to Ned for several years I remember him well and fondly. He had a great smile and a warm personality. He will be missed by everybody who knew him.
