Ed loved to watch the Dallas Cowboys, he liked VW Bugs and enjoyed his extensive clock collection.
Ed was a very reserved and quiet man, but in his last few years came to love singing Karaoke, his favorite songs to sing were the old hymns Blessed Assurance and When The Roll is Called Up Yonder. Those are just things that he enjoyed, but that is not who Ed was as a man, he was a great provider for his family, he was a loving husband, and a daddy that was adored by his daughters. He was kind, gentle, sweet, loving man who loved the Lord. His two daughters can never express their gratitude for his love and support of them all his years and the great role model he was to them both. The Lord blessed this family with the greatest daddy and husband there ever could have been.
