A lover of theater, Ed played a role in the “Drunkard and the Olio” at the playhouse on Riverside. He absolutely LOVED Facebook, especially during COVID.

Ed loved movies and was a walking encyclopedia of movie trivia, especially movies of the 40s and 50s. He also liked television. Law and Order SVU was his favorite show. Ed enjoyed all types of music and art, especially Robert Mapplethorpe.
A very likeable person, Ed made many friends through the years who will miss him dearly.
