Ed had such a zest for life and lived it to the fullest. Anyone who knew him knows that he was a passionate outdoorsman who lived to hunt, fish, and camp. He was also an accomplished silversmith. And he loved to dance. He was a man of many talents.
He loved his family and always involved them in his many interests, so they in turn, lead amazing lives.
