Ed was born in Yankton, South Dakota. He served in the U.S. Army from 1959 to 1962. He lived in Yankton until 1980 then moved his family to Salt Lake City to work for Morgan Manufacturing as a sales representative. In 1990 Ed and Mary moved to Kent, Washington where he worked for Sahlberg Equipment and eventually retired.
Ed loved his family more than life itself. He enjoyed rebuilding cars and attending local car shows. His grandkids were the apples of his eye.
As a family we wish to express our sincere gratitude to the special members of the Providence Hospice staff.
In lieu of flowers a remembrance can be made to Providence Hospice of Seattle Foundation
