provided public services assistance in times of natural disasters, as 
well as monitoring for the Iditarod race during his time in Alaska. A 
licensed pilot, he thoroughly loved anything to do with flying. An avid 
outdoorsman, he was an active hunter and fisherman. He also included 
model trains among his hobbies.

He was a very active member of First United Methodist Church in 
Hillsboro was he was a devoted choir member. Ed was also a past member 
of the American Legion.
