Edward was born and raised in San Francisco, where he met and married the love of his life, Donna. They later moved their family of six Children to Tracy in 1977, where they enjoyed a spirited home filled with love, laughter, good food and a very strong sense of how valuable and important family was to Edward, making it his most precious commodity in life. Once "Nunu's" Grandchildren came into the world, he enjoyed his ability to return to his youth as one of the greatest playmates a child could ever have. He spent many hours teaching them, as he worked on projects making and building things for them. Edward was also very devoted to his Catholic Faith. He was extremely dedicated to praying the rosary, as he made it priority in life. He also enjoyed his membership to the Knights of Columbus where he and Donna later became members of the St. Joseph's Parish of Elk Grove; after their move in 1998. Edward took great pleasure spending time with his Brother Joseph, as they spent many hours together serving others, becoming great stewards of volunteering in the Parish.
