Edmund Barlow Obituary
Edmund Owen Barlow, our beloved Husband, Dad, Brother and Grandpa returned to our Father in Heaven on January 18, 2013. Surrounded by his family, his passing was a sweet relief from the cancer that invaded his body.
Ed was born on April 26, 1942 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Albert and Maurine Barlow. His greatest loves were the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and his family. His dreams of having many children and a large posterity were fulfilled and he often expressed his gratitude to the Lord for giving him that blessing.
He was preceded in death by his parents and 2 grandchildren. He is survived by his wives Penny, Ann and Elizabeth, 32 children, and 41 grand-children.
Funeral Services will be held Wednesday, January 23, 2013, 12:00 p.m. at the LDS Chapel, 12830 south 4570 w. Riverton, Ut. 84065. A viewing will be held Tuesday, January 22, 2013 from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. and the day of the service, January 23, 2013, 10:00 to 11:45 a.m. at the same location.

Barlow Family,
I was able to take care of Ed while he was being treated in the hospital. It is rare to meet such a calm, kind, soft-spoken and genuine person who always showed his gratitude while being so ill. I feel priviledged to get to know Ed and enjoy his company during his visits at Infusion Services. My heart goes out to all of his loved ones and know that you are in my prayers.
"When you come to the edge of all you know, you must believe in one of two things. You will either be given earth to stand upon or you will be given wings." Godspeed Ed...now you have your wings.

I feel I've known Ed all my life. I remember when he first married Penny. I watched him raise a beautiful and loving family. I was fortunate to have my son 'Edmond' marry Ed's daughter Maria and together we share a beautiful granddaughter. Thanks Ed for raising such a wonderful family. Our thoughts and prayers are with Penny, Ann and Liz during this time of sorrow.

Dear Penny , Ann, Natalie, Maria, Amy and Mary. I am so sorry for your loss, I didn,t know Ed really well, but I have met a lot of his family and I know the thing he thought about most and the thing that preyed on his mind was the success of his children and the choices they make in life. You all showed him the love and respect he deserved and I know you will meet him again. It will be hard to be without for a while, but he is free of the pain wracked body. God speed my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Ed, you have an amazing family! I have had the opportunity to get to know James, and been able to treat and receive the love and respect that I would hope would deem your approval. You and I never met in our short life on this earth, I look to meet you some day and see you "wave" so I know it is you. - Chrissy

Dear Penny, I learned of your very sad news today. May the comfort of knowing that Ed is in a better place with loved ones help ease your pain, and happy memories carry you through your most difficult moments. You were a good friend to me in school all those years ago and I think of you often. I'm still living in Scotland and am sorry that I can't be there to attend the funeral. My condolences to you and your family....
