Haden Edwards Obituary
Born in New York City on August 4, 1952, he was the son of Henry H. and Lily (Martines) Edwards. He attended Post College in Connecticut for two years and then attended the University of Miami.
In the course of his career, Haden Edwards served as a brand consultant to firms in various fields. Growing up in the Bronx, Haden was a self-made man. He founded multiple companies including: Bi-Weekly Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Tracey/Edwards Company, and H Communications. TEO grew into a large and prosperous ad agency and as CEO of H Communications, Haden worked as a one-man show to create a wonderful livelihood for his family.
Haden had an enchanting personality and his presence was exuberant. A man with high standards for himself and others, he forced everyone around him to be the best versions of themselves. A fiercely loyal and generous friend with rock solid principles, Haden embodied integrity.
Haden's greatest joy in life was being a loving husband and devoted father. He told countless bedtime stories and was his daughters' most loyal fan on the sidelines. From being an accomplished martial artist to a low-handicapped golfer, Haden had a wide array of life experiences. He could also be found training his beloved dogs or watching a thunderstorm on the patio of Manchester Country Club with close friends.
His personal accomplishments include receiving the National Guard's highest civilian award, the Distinguished Service Medal, serving as trustee for the Boys and Girls Club, New Hampshire Symphony Orchestra, and New Hampshire State Veterans Cemetery Association, Catholic Medical Center and Board of Directors Manchester Country Club and co-founding the McKeryn Bridge Foundation.
Family members include his wife, Kathleen (McCrohan) Edwards of Bedford; two daughters, Alicia and Morgan Edwards, both of Bedford; his sister, Jane Gallichio and husband Frank of Yonkers; many nephews, nieces, cousins and dear friends. He was predeceased by his daughter, Haley Rose Edwards.
A celebration of his life took place on Tuesday, July 21, 2015 at the Manchester Country Club, River Road, Bedford.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in Haden's memory can be made to The Edwards Family Fund, Care of your local Eastern Bank.

My deepest sympathy to Kathleen and the kids. My fondest memory of Haden was when he did flips at the Bedford Bluffs. I thought... "Pretty good for a Big Guy". Little did I know he would be a good friend.
