Obituary
Cowboy Ed is back in the saddle again, riding across that prairie in the sky with his beloved wife Mary, sisters Maggie and Blondie, and brothers Lewis, Herman, and Johannes by his side. His joyful smile and fun-loving spirit lives on with his children Colleen (Randy) Lomas and Michael (Robyn) Abt, grandchildren Kaitlin and Carmen, Brodie, Tori, Kate, and Mallory, and great-granddaughter Luna. Ed’s kindness, generosity, and dedication to his community were central to his life and legacy.
