Ed was a deeply honest, kind and caring man. “Fast Eddie” was a classic car enthusiast and collector. He enjoyed gardening, his yard and traveling with his wife.

Everyone is invited to a reception lunch following the service. Edward will be laid to rest at St. Thomas Cemetery (Coeur d’Alene, ID) with a graveside military service.
The family has designated the Humane Society of Southwest Washington for memorial contributions, if so desired.
