Ed moved to Honeoye in 1961. It was here that he and his wife, Rita, fixed up the old farmhouse on West Lake Road that he called “home” until his passing
Besides his service with the local fire department and ambulance squad, Ed worked for 4 years delivering “meals on wheels” to many local seniors.
