Age 93, passed away on May 14, 2012, in Prescott, Arizona. A nearly life-long resident of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Edward moved to Prescott in January 2011, to be closer to his nephew, Jack Lindloff.

A member of the old Perseverance Presbyterian Church on North 82nd Street, Edward joined the Wauwatosa Presbyterian Church after Perseverance was dissolved. After retiring, Edward volunteered at the Laubach Literacy Center in Milwaukee where he tutored students in subjects ranging from Algebra and Geometry, to U.S. History. Edward was recognized several years ago by the Laubach Center for his exceptional contributions and longstanding service for the betterment of students of all ages. A regular swimmer and ice skater, Edward enjoyed the outdoors, camping, time at the beaches and his favorite outing was to "go down to Lake Michigan" and relax. Blessed with excellent health and a trim physique, Edward would swim regularly at the YMCA pool and enjoy lunch afterwards with his swimming friends.
