Edward was a 1972 graduate of Sidney High School. He attended Lincoln Tech in 1972-73 where he studied diesel mechanics. He loved his children and grandchildren more than anything in the world. He enjoyed time with family and friends and cherished visits with Mack, Zane, and Crew. He enjoyed time up at Indian Lake. In recent years, he and Karen enjoyed being snowbirds in Lake Wales, Florida. They enjoyed many years of travelling to Hilton Head, SC, vacations to all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Dominican Republic, Seattle, WA and 35+ years of boating/tubing at Lake Cumberland, KY. A highlight of his bucket list was taking his family on a month-long vacation out West back in 1995. Ed enjoyed deer hunting with his son, Nick, and his brothers and nephew Tony along with a few family friends. He also enjoyed duck hunting and mushroom hunting. He liked playing euchre. Ed was a life-time follower of the Cleveland Browns and an avid fan of The Ohio State football and basketball teams.
In keeping with Ed's wishes, he will be cremated. The family will plan a Celebration of Life at a future date.
