Ed is survived by his wife, Katherine Kruppa; his daughters, Diane Romero and Irene Graham; his sister Valentine Abel; and his brother Walter Kruppa. He was preceded in death by his son, Edward W. Kruppa.
Ed was born in Odessa, Ukraine and emigrated to the United States in 1952 where he met his wife, Katherine, to whom he was happily married to for 67 years.
Ed was a devoted husband and father. He loved life and making people smile. He always had a joke at the ready to be told. He loved camping, hiking, sailing and skiing. Most of all, he loved dancing with Katherine.
He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
