Edward Hartman Obituary
WESTERVILLE - Edward T. Hartman, affectionately known as Ed, passed away peacefully on July 22, 2024, in Westerville, Ohio, at the age of 72. Born on October 22, 1951, in Salem, he was the beloved son of Elmer and Ila Hartman. Ed is survived by his daughter Stephanie Hartman of Westerville, Ohio, and his son Brad Hartman of Tempe, Arizona, who will cherish his memory as a devoted father. He is also survived by a brother and sister, Les Hartman and Carolyn Cooper, both of Salem, and extended family throughout the community.
