Edward Ernest Erbach, 76, passed away at home surrounded by family on April 18, 2025.
He was born Oct. 27, 1948, in Conway, Arkansas, a son of the late Thomas Henry Erbach, Sr. and Agnes Strain Erbach. Edd is survived by his wife of 58 years, Donna Erbach, his son, Adam Erbach (Nancy) of Conway and daughter Amy Hancock (Jim) of Sherwood; he leaves behind two grandchildren, Alex Erbach (Seaera) of Greenbrier and Blake Erbach (Nicole) of Casa and three great-grandchildren, Charlotte, Harrison and Ashton; his sister, Marilyn Worm and his brother, Tom Erbach (Nancy) of Conway and brother-in-law, John Williams (Sandy) of Beebe and many nieces and nephews.
Edd was a graduate of St. Joseph High School and a member of St. Joseph Church. He retired from Walter's Service Center in 2013 after 46 years of service. He was a third-degree member of the Knights of Columbus. He loved going to and entering car shows to flaunt his street rod, a 1930 Model A Ford. He faithfully went to the Petit Jean Antique Car and Swap Meet since 1970. He also enjoyed riding his Harley Davidsons with his latest motorcycle being a Boss Hoss 502. Edd was a man of wisdom along with his shenanigans. He truly loved and was so proud of his family and friends.
Please join us in celebration of Edd's life at the Knights of Columbus Hall immediately after the service. He would be tickled and delighted if you had a beer for him.
Rosary will be Friday, April 25 at 1 p.m. at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Conway, and will be followed by a funeral mass at 2 p.m. with entombment at St. Joseph Mausoleum.
ln lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Parkinson's Research (give.michaeljfox.org) or to St. Joseph School Endowment and Charitable Trust at www.sjse.org and 501-329-1818.

I am so sad to hear about Edd's passing. I've known Edd, my entire life. My earliest memories of him are from Martin's Gas Station. Mom stop in and say hi and let us buy a piece of gum. He will surely be missed by everyone who loved him.

Dear Donna, Adam, Amy, Tommy, Marilyn and the rest of the Erbach family.
Lou and I are so sorry to hear about the loss of Edd.
I remember in the early 1960's he designed and built a bicycle that should have been put in the Smithsonian Museum right next to the Wright Brothers plane. Lucky for me he let me ride it. I will never forget it or him either.
Edd will be truly missed by all the family and many in the Conway community.
