Born May 17, 1944 in Bellefonte, he was the son of the late Bud and Marj Keller. He married Karen Davenport on June 17, 1977.
He is survived by four children, Erin Derr and her boyfriend Danny from Mifflintown, Joni Hubler and her husband Ted from Spring Mills, Dan Keller of Pennsylvania and Kim Wilder of Florida, seven grandchildren, Austin and Conner Derr, Miley, Jase, Ellie and Ryan Hubler, Josh Mulberger and great grandchildren.
He retired in 2006 after 26 years as a Heat and Vent Technician at Penn State University. Everyone who knew Ed knew how much he loved gardening. He brought a palm tree seed from Florida that required constant attention during winters in PA. He also enjoyed his furry friends and playing trains with his grandchildren.
