Edward Carlyle Alley ObituaryEdward Carlyle Alley, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and man of faith, passed away on June 2, 2025, at the age of 82 at his home in Airville.
Born on August 13, 1942, Ed lived a life filled with love, faith, and family.
He is survived by his devoted wife of ten years, Beatrice Winifred Alley; his children: Edward Alley III, Barbara Alley, John Alley and his wife, Joan, Joseph Alley, Peggy and Issac Barrita, and Sandy Alley; and his stepdaughter, Eileen Alley. His many grandchildren were his pride and joy.
Ed was preceded in death by his son, William Alley, and his brothers: Norman, William, Robert, and Richard Alley.
In his later years, Ed demonstrated unwavering faith in Jesus Christ and was a dedicated member of Woodbine Assembly of Believers, where he found solace and community. His deep love for his family was evident in every aspect of his life. He cherished the time spent with his loved ones, creating lasting memories that will be treasured for generations to come.
Ed loved to bless and help others however he could, and he always had a joke to tell. His kind heart, good spirit, and unwavering faith will be dearly missed by all who knew him. His legacy of love and faith will continue to inspire those whose lives he touched.
A private Celebration of Life will be held for close friends, family, and church members in the near future. Please contact the family or church for more information.
