Ed was proud of his military service in the Marines, but his pride grew when he was followed into the Marines by both of his grandsons, Christopher and Jesse. Ed loved the outdoors and spent time in his younger years hunting and fishing. Ed and his wife, Pamela, bowled together for many years and even bowled on a team with their daughter and son-in-law. Ed was also a proud Raiders football fan.
