Ed was an amazing loving husband, father and grandfather. He was a strong Christian man who always fought hard for others and himself. He ran “Stephens Table” soup kitchen and served the community for 26 years and more than 250,000 meals. Ed volunteered several years in the jail and prison ministry including Genesee County jail and Attica prison. He has been awarded the “Good Samaritan” awards from Steve Hawley and earned several certificates and college diplomas. His fun wit, personality and jokes will be missed.
