He was born in Brighten, New York, January 19, 1936, to Salome Defreze and Joe Sinople.
Edward made his journey to Las Vegas for the trades of carpenter and hairstylist, building a large chunk of Las Vegas homes and offices. He was married to Charlene Defreze for 32 of those years, having brought two children in, and having two more along the way. Edward was always dabbling in his true passion for the Old West with roping, fast draw shooting, playing guitar or painting the Old West on canvas. He was and always will be a true cowboy at heart.
He is survived by his loving family and friends, who will miss and remember him always.
Memorial services will be at 10 a.m. Wednesday, April 18, at Southern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery, 1900 Buchanan Blvd. in Boulder City. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Spirit Therapies.
Arrangements under the direction of Palm Eastern Mortuary, Las Vegas, NV.
