In 1990, Ed retired from farming and he and Lucille moved to Carroll, but he never retired his overalls. He was an enthusiastic follower of his children’s and grandchildren’s sporting events and other activities across the state. He was also proud to be able to trace his lineage back many hundreds of years. Ed enjoyed baseball, basketball and was an avid reader and storyteller. His contagious sense of humor was evident in his mischievous grin. Ed was a member of Holy Spirit Parish in Carroll.
