He is also survived by many nieces and nephews who were all very close to his heart. Ed will be missed by all, including his close friends, Naomi and Donald Allen and Bobby Lammarre, along with many other neighbors and friends. Ed was predeceased by his parents. A visitation will be held 3-5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30, at Birmingham Funeral Home, 438 Main St., Old Town, where a memorial service will be held 5 p.m. For those that would like to remember Ed in a special way, donations may be made to a charity of one’s choice.
