OAKLAND - Edwin Daniel
Mullen went to be with his Lord on Sunday, Feb. 25, 2018, at Maine General in Augusta, after bravely battening a long illness.
Edwin was born Feb. 14, 1944, in Oakland and attended Oakland schools. Edwin served in the U.S. Army in Germany and was a Veteran of the Vietnam War and a member of the American Legion Post #51 of Oakland.
Edwin is predeceased by his son Aaron Lee Mullen; his parents Muriel Perkins and Herbert E. Mullen, Sr.; his brother Herbert E Mullen, Jr. and his wife Sandra Shaw Mullen; several aunts and uncles; and his beloved boxer, Chelsea.
Edwin is survived by his wife Angela M. (Hinck) Mullen of 53 years; and two sons, Shawn E. Mullen and significant other, Karen Lock, Dale H. Mullen and his wife, Deborah (Beckwith); his daughter, Tammy M. (Mullen) Phillips and husband Daniel; sister Lisa E. Levine and fiancé Matt Wilcox; several grandchildren; several great-grandchildren; several nieces and nephews; and many cousins; as well as countless numbers of friends.
Edwin's family graciously thanks the Doctors, Nurses and C.N.A.'s of Maine General for their kindness and care during his long and frequent stays in the hospital. His family also thanks Dr. Gregory Emmons, Oncologist and his nurse Monique Crummett, R.N. of Veterans Hospital in Augusta, for their concern and care given over the years to Edwin.
A Celebration of Life service will be held at the American Legion Post #51 in Oakland following the graveside service when the spring burials begin. Notice will be given at that time. An online guestbook may be signed at www.lawrybrothers.com

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.
