Ed loved to travel Texas to find the little out-of-the-way diners and enjoyed traveling around to watch Texas football, including the Texas Aggies. The family would like to extend its thanks to Odyssey HealthCare Hospice who gave such loving and excellent care.
He was preceded in death by his mother and father; sisters, Nancy and Bobbie; and brother, Joe.
