      Sending our love to Ed’s family in this difficult time. Ed was our neighbor for 23 years. We have missed him since he moved and wished we had one more chance to visit. He was so funny, we always were laughing while visiting with him. One of his repeat jokes that Rose got a kick out of too was everytime we packed up our camper he always yelled from the front door, “you got room in there Rose!!?” 😉 Over the years he was always racing us to snowblow us before we had to go to work and we tried to return the favor as he aged. When he moved we were sad and missed his daily “waves” from the car as he was always on the move (golfing). Peace and love to our favorite neighbor.

    Ed was my best friend while attending St. Mary’s grade school. He was a down to earth great guy and a much better golfer than I. My condolences to his extended family.

  • Ed Deardorf was an authentic person. There was no phoniness about him. You got what you got and that was a beautiful thing. He loved his family deeply and there was no question about it. If you liked Ed you got the entire package. Simple, no airs about him. Men like that are hard to find. You will be missed but the memories will always be happy ones.

  • I’m so sorry to hear about Ed’s passing. I worked with him at Tri Clover, and I remember how much we enjoyed our time together

  • So happy that I was able to see Ed and his son Mike when they attended my husband and Ed’s cousin, Dick Pint’s funeral last October. I have many good memories of coming to Kenosha and staying with Ed & Rose on different occasions. We always had such a great time together. He will be truly missed. My condolences to his family.

    My condolences to all that loved him. Ed was a wonderful man. He cherished his family and was very proud of them. I moved away years ago but loved seeing him at parties when I was able to drive down. Both he and Rose will be dearly missed but now they are back together ❤️ I pray you all honor him by sticking together as a family and being there for each other. That will be his greatest legacy 🥰
