Edgar Royal Prosser

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Edgar Royal Prosser III, who departed this life on November 14th, 2025, at the age of seventy-two. "Ed" was a cherished husband, father, grandfather, brother, cousin and friend and a unique individual whose warmth, kindness, and genuine nature touched the lives of all who knew him.
Born on August 27, 1953, Ed lived a life full of exceptional storytelling, adventure, love, laughter, and dedication to family. Ed will be fondly remembered for his kind smile, gentle spirit, and the countless memories shared with those closest to him. For several years, Ed delighted children, elders, hospital patients, friends, and family as his role of Santa Claus! His eyes truly twinkled when children walked into the room.
Ed is survived by his immediate family: Lisa L (Phillips) Prosser, whom he married November 25, 1978, Lucas T. Prosser (and Stacey Prosser), Audra L. Scott (and Billy Scott), Emma K. Prosser Smith (and Joshua Smith) children, Dominic G. Scott, Isaiah Smith, Henry R. Scott, Raisie Smith, Aullie J. Scott, Ruby Smith, Ella K. Prosser, Ian Smith and William B. Prosser grandchildren, Donna K. Moulder, (and David Moulder) siblings, and many nieces and nephews, devoted friends, cousins and in-laws. He was predeceased by Edgar R. Prosser, Jr. and Mary Sparks Prosser (parents), Gerald R. Prosser (brother), and grandparents.
The family wishes to express their deepest gratitude to all who supported Ed throughout his life.
Ed served in the United States Navy and the Indiana National Guard. He was a highly specialized Boiler and Machinery Consultant and Authorized Inspector Supervisor according to the ASME Code. He loved the ocean, and boating, four-wheel drive vehicles, motorcycles, dirt bikes, and antique John Deere tractors as his primary hobbies.
Visitation will take place at Friedens United Church of Christ, 8300 S. Meridian Street, Indianapolis, on Friday, November 21st from 4-7:00 p.m. Graveside services will be private for family only.
