Ed spend many years in the sales field. He sold tools to ranchers and farmers and spent many years selling cars in different states. The storyline was, Ed was such a good salesman, he could sell an icecube to an Eskimo.
Storytelling came easy to Ed. He would keep you on the end of your seat just waiting for the punchline. Ed loved camping, golfing and fishing with his sons. He would sit by the campfire at family and friend reunions and sing. Everyone appreciated his talent and natural ability to entertain.
When Ed returned to the Delta area he worked for the Mosquito Abatement. He formed lasting friendships with everyone he worked with.
