He loved the outdoors and was an avid hunter, fisherman, and conservationist. He shared many fun times, laughs, and excursions with his large group of close friends and sportsman buddies.

His most beloved destination was OPAMO, the family cabin in Canada. Ed was also an avid sports enthusiast and was a loyal fan of the Badgers and Packers. The most important part of his life was his family. He cherished his role as Papa and always enjoyed laughter filled gatherings with the full family no matter the occasion. Ed is survived by his wife, Kathy; his children, Brian (Erika) Boebel and Kris (Mike) Hasson; and five grandchildren, Ben, Libby, Tommy Boebel and Ava, Jenna Hasson. He was prececed in death by his parents and brother, Stan.

Instead of flowers, the family encourages all memorials be directed to Windsor UCC with the aspiration of establishing the Boebel Family Legacy Fund to support future needs of the church.

Our heartfelt thanks to all at SSM Health for their exceptional care of Ed's health needs over the years. They began as our providers, but we now consider them our friends.
