He enjoyed cars, boats, fishing, motorcycles, camping, pretty much anything with family and friends. He was a member of the San Gabriel Valley Harley Davidson Club.

Ed did so many things in his short life and will leave a big hole in a lot of people’s lives that no one else could even come close to filling the way he did. The song “I did it my way”, by Frank Sinatra was the way he lived his life. Ed did it his way.
