Ed Pecce was a remarkable teacher.  Truly gifted! He captured my attention in Algebra I & II, and equipped me with knowledge and skills I've used over and over again in both my profession and personal life. Mr Pecce was fully vested in making sure young people had every opportunity to learn. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing! I will always remember him fondly; he was funny, intelligent, unselfish, and sincere. He loved God; he loved "Wifey;" and he loved teaching!



I have just learned of Mr. Pecce's passing.  I met Mr. Pecce about 30 years ago when I was a student at KC.  After graduation from the PA program, I joined the Faculty at KC.   Mr. Pecce was a delightful person, always made me smile.   I know he will be dearly missed by all those who knew him and worked with him.

Love and Prayers to the Family

To the Pecce family.
My condolences on Ed's passing.  He was always so cheerful and great to be around. I remember when I started at KC he was one that made me feel so welcome.  He had such a great personality and loved to joke and make people laugh. My prayers are with you.

I am so very sorry to hear of Ed’s passing.  I worked with him at the College and always appreciated his quick wit and humor.  His students appreciated his willingness to always go the extra mile to help them in understanding difficult concepts.  He will be greatly missed.

Mrs. Pecce, Richard, Robert & Linda,  

There are not enough words to express how sad I am about the loss of your husband/father.  I always enjoyed Mr. Pecce's visits to the office.  He was warm and pleasant and always made my day.  There is no question that he will be missed.  

Lois, Robert, Richard and Linda,

So sorry and so sad to hear of Edward's passing.   Just in a flood of tears!   Your family is so dear to me.    Someone else mentioned Edward's hugs...and they were the best!   Lois, I have never met you!  Only knew you as "wifey"!  Robert,  Richard and  Linda, you are so special to me.

Our condolences go out to the Pecce Family! Thank you for sharing Mr. Pecce with us during the critical years of our lives. I wanted to be a Math teacher because of his example (but he told me to not do it, it didn't pay enough). He was clever and witty and made our classes worth coming to. He heckled me because I took Auto Mechanics with him, and he pointed out to all of the guys in the class that I had the highest grade ( I studied, they didn't..and Mr. Pecce thought it was so funny). He taught me how to put an engine together, work on the brakes, and he gave me his love of Math!! All of these skills and more have helped me to be an accomplished homeschool mom (which pays even less than a Math teacher)! Mr. Pecce was one of my favorite teachers of all time, and the world will miss his humor! Can't wait till Jesus returns and takes us home, then we can do some Calculus together!!


Dear Pecce Family: I am deeply sorry for your loss. I have so many fond memories of  Ed Pecce; here are a few: He was a dear friend and colleague who would drop everything to help someone--such as the statistical calculations for my master's project. Thanks to the hours of consultation, I finished a degree and gained a friend. I treasure the walnut bowl he made as my graduation gift (he made it specifically to match my piano). I will always fondly remember the many lunches we shared together when I was on faculty at Kettering College--especially those at Mama DiSalvo's. 

You will be in my prayers for the comfort of 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18. 



I am so very sorry. I have known Ed for more than 35 years and adored him for his hugs and wonderful sense of humor. What a wonderful man. He will be missed by so many - especially the students whom he tirelessly taught, tutored, and encouraged. 

So sorry to hear of Ed’s passing. He was always such a joy to have around. Always joking, laughing and with a new joke. 
I remember the day Ed came to our home to ask if we had a teaching position at the college.   After visiting with him for a short while, I knew we wanted him and was happy to  hire him on the spot. I never regretted that decision.  He was always ready to teach any class the college needed. I remember when he began the Introduction to Computers Course, when no one knew anything about computers. Those were the days when we all pitched in and did whatever was needed! 
Ed had a great sense of humor. One year for the faculty follies he was the exercise guru, Richard Simmons, and the rest of his were his disobedient  students. Another year he was Rudolph and we, the females of the general education faculty, sang Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer to him. We had them rolling in the aisles. 
He will be greatly missed; he was a real character.  We loved him dearly. 



Both of my girls thought the world of “Mr. Pecce”. Sherri was especially grateful that he gave up his only free period, School-Year 1980-1981. She & several other students needed Algebra to graduate, but it wasn’t offered at a time they could take it. Mr. Pecce said he would be glad to teach them. We also learned how he referred to Lois to his students:  “Wifey”.

My heart is so sad after hearing today of Ed's passing.  Such a sweet,  kind, good, funny, talented man.  His characteristic walk, facial expressions, laugh, and quips are etched in my memory.   He could explain math so patiently and in a variety of ways to help every willing student learn.  I loved working with him at Kettering College.  My deepest condolences to Lois, Linda, Richard, and Robert.

Bev Cobb (and Dan, too)

Dearest Lois, I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.  I am here for you if you need to talk.   With love, Dorothy

My heart is heavy for you, Lois,  and for your family as well. Christa Carlson and Linda Janetzko both informed me.  Johnny would be joining me with our heartfelt sympathy except that due to his dementia he can't recollect any memory of Ed. I did not expect this news but we know that one day soon you'll be reunited when Jesus comes a the trumpet's call. These certainly are uncertain times. But we trust in the certainty of heaven and the earth made new. Ed's many years of teaching will leave many sad hearts with his students. ~Lovingly, Betty Kossick
