After leaving Latin school, Ed spent five years at Northeastern University earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering while simultaneously working on a cooperative basis at Raytheon's Missile Systems Division. He then worked for a number of years as an engineer in the aerospace industry and eventually phased into the area of sales and marketing of technical and scientific products.
For 36 years Ed owned and operated a New England based Independent Sales Agency specializing in Analytical Instrumentation for the industrial and scientific markets- ETA Associates Inc of Newton MA. In 1964 Ed and I were married and lived in California for several years before returning to our roots in New England. We lived in Newton MA for 30 years where we raised our only child, Rachel. Rachel (DeAntonio) and her husband Brian with our three grandchildren live near my current home in Apollo Beach, Florida. Our grandchildren are Stephen, who is 16, Zachary, who is 10.5 and Emily who is 8. Ed was a wonderful grandfather and very involved as I continue to be in the lives of the grandkids. Ed and I spent a significant time cruising our 36' sailboat around coastal New England with a special fondness for coastal Maine. In the winter months we split our free time and energy skiing and traveling to warm weather climates, such as Florida, the BVI & other world destinations. Through the years he remained a presence as “Uncle Ed” in the lives of Mel Stern’s fabulous kids Eric, Celia and Peter. After the sudden onset of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (5 months) and a valiant effort Ed passed away on October 27, 2007. He was buried at Sharon Memorial Park. Our beautiful daughter, Rachel, chose “Loving Man.......Our Hero.” for his memorial plaque.
