Edward Hubert Obituary
Edward J. Hubert, age 75, passed away peacefully at his home on Monday, December 4th, 2017. Ed, beloved husband of Joann (Bernzott) Hubert, loving father of Cindy (Greg) Olson, Greg (Connie) Hubert and Brian (Laurie) Hubert. Cherished Papa to Noah, Abby, Ellie, Natalie, Ainsley, Chloe, Norah & Evan. Dear son-in-law of Julia Bernzott, brother to George "Butch" (Karen) Hubert and Sharon Hubert, brother-in-law to Bill (Andrea) Bernzott, Kathy (Greg) Kathman and Barb (Howard) Thomas. Ed built a career in the family business, Hubert Company, started by his Father in 1946 and growing it alongside his Dad, Mother, both siblings and brother-in-law Howard; with Joann providing likely the most support on the "Homefront". He joked that he began his career sweeping floors at the age of eight and stopped working at Hubert Company when it was sold in 2000. Ed touched many in our community with a profound passion for giving. He was always curious, humble, sincere and a connector of problem solvers. He leveraged relationships & dollars to lift others. His heart of generosity knew no bounds. Most importantly, he enjoyed his grandkids beyond measure - often playing the role of Uber driver, cheerleader, morale booster, card/board game host, and much more. A pillar of Christian values. A good and faithful servant. A life well-lived. Visitation will be held Thursday, December 7th, 2017 from 10:00AM-12:30PM at Mihovk-Rosenacker Funeral Home, 5527 Cheviot Rd. (45247) followed by Mass of Christian Burial at 1:00PM at St. Ignatius Loyola Church, 5222 North Bend Rd. (45247). In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the St. Ignatius Tuition Assistance Fund, 5222 North Bend Rd, Cinti, OH, 45247 or St. Vincent de Paul Society, 1125 Bank Street, Cinti, OH 45214. www.mrfh.com

I used to live in Over-the-Rhine, at the same time as Ed was busily engaged there. We were always close friends at heart. I say "at heart" because the heart is more important than the head. And Ed knew this. It has been years since I have had morning coffee with Ed. But we shared a deep Catholic faith, among other interests, as I am reminded by seeing the reference to St. Ignatius Loyola Church. Ed used to be a handsome and dashing fellow. He always had a smile on his face, a hand for the downtrodden, and a sincere hope for the future. Now, however, he is with the angels. One among the highest of them. Even more handsome and dashing than ever! He will be in the Heavenly realm for eternity, and we must thank the Lord for having allowed him to come to our world for such a relatively short visit. Ed has done well for the Lord. May he be glorified in Heaven, and may we try to follow his fine example, in all of our humility, in the many years ahead.

Business books could be written on the right way he grew a family business, the countless accomplishments and accolades awarded, details of fortunes made, and the hundreds of lives that were positively impacted could all be listed...but Ed would never have wanted it that way. He is best remembered for being such an incredibly friendly, outgoing, kind and helpful person. I will never forget his smile and infectious optimism. The world was left a better place because of Ed Hubert. Rest in peace.

In case you ever wondered what an Angel looks like in person....
Here is Ed after giving 2 random kids brand new winter coats one day. That was Ed. Your image and character will always light the path for others to follow.

Joanne,
You and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. Ed was so supportive of the work we did in OTR in support of the affordable housing cause. He was always ready to help us financially but more importantly with his advice and contacts in the community. He will be greatly missed.

For over 20 years Ed was one of the chief cheerleaders and guardian angels of Crossroad Health Center, a Christian ministry that provides high quality health care for the poor of Cincinnati regardless of a person's ability to pay. Ed's enthusiasm and warmth were infectious. If there was a financial need at Crossroad, Ed was always there to quietly take care of it. If there was a new program in the universe that might help patients at the health center, Ed was there to push it. If some staff members were feeling worn out and discouraged by the challenges of the work, Ed was there to praise and encourage. Ed, your generous spirit literally blessed 1000's! You will be missed.
"Then the KIng will say to those on his right, '...inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world...whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.'" Matthew 25

Ed was my mentor not only when I worked for him, but throughout life....We might not of talked frequently but when we did or met for coffee....I never left without learning something from him. What he taught me in business carried on into my life.....and taught me the true meaning of integrity, humbleness, giving back and never taking a short cut in life or business....that anything good takes time. This world will miss you and that energy that never ceased to end. Sending loving prayers to Joann and the entire Hubert Family....

Oh, Ed, what a hole you are leaving in so many hearts. Like a ripple in a pond, your generosity and example to your fellow man will go on and on. Your jitty jit energy kept everyone hopping and your smile lit up a room. For over 50 years I've admired your ability to make everyone around you welcomed, comfortable, and loved. You leaving so suddenly sent a shockwave through all the lives you have touched. You were well loved and respected and no one can leave this earth with a greater legacy.

Ed was a very close and trusted friend. He, along with his wife Joann and Hubert Foundation, helped to establish two meaningful non-profits that have helped hundreds of men an women returning home from prison. He believed in me in business as well, always had my back. God bless his life and his family. I will miss him forever.

It is with shock and sadness that I send condolences to the Hubert Family. I spoke with Ed last Friday and we planned to meet in a week or two. Ed was a generous donor to our families in Price Hill. He was a great champion and a tough critic of our work. He will be missed for the big things and the little things. Chellie
