80, passed away August 6, 2001. Edmund was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts. As a youth he moved with his family to Martha's Vineyard,
Massachusetts, where he lived through young adulthood. After serving in the US Army Air Corps during World War II, he and his wife relocated to the Pacific Northwest, and lived the past 45 years in the Seattle area.
Edmund was devoted to his wife, Johnnie Sue, and admired by his children, Susanna Gilbert Carnation, WA, Allen Kelley Yuma, AZ, Nora Strand Longview, WA, and Mary Johnson Santa Fe, NM. He treasured his seven grandchildren and four great grand children. He is also survived by his brother, Robert Kelley Edgartown, MA, and his sister, Louise Garand
Hancock, NH.
His life was celebrated by his family at a private gathering on a sunny Puget Sound beach. Memories were shared of his love for camping, fishing, and hunting; his carpentry skills; his intelligent humor; his thoughtfulness and
kindness to others; and his always willing helping hands. An online memorial book is available to sign at www.evergreen-washelli.com.
Edmund supported many worthy organizations. Memorials may be made to the American Heart Association or any organization of choice - it surely would have been his also. Arrangements by Evergreen-Washelli Funeral Home, Seattle.
