Edward worked for Concrete Delivery in Detroit. While working in Detroit, he met up with many good friends from Cape Breton, however he felt he lived his dream to retire in his family home in Mabou and in
turn marry his best friend Carlene. Edward was a kind quiet gentleman, who could be seen most days
walking his 4 mile trail as his daily outing. Edward lived the last three years in the Mira Nursing Home in Truro due to a stroke in Sept 2019.
Thank you Catherine, Edward’s advocate.
