I have some sort of disease or bugs killing off my pines but doesnt seem to be affecting the oaks, sweet gums.

Anythoughts or recommendations?

My understanding is that Pine beetles don't attack healthy pine trees. They either really stink or dead already… they just take a long time to turn brown.

Had no idea Ed was there-he implemented many of tree plans we put together many years ago. Always did good work. He was at ArborCare back then-long before John sold the company.
