William " Bill " Ednie Obituary

William (Bill) E. Ednie, 89, passed away peacefully Friday, July 31, 2020. Bill was born August 31, 1930, in Saltsburg, PA, the son of the late Edward G. and M. Lucille Elliott Ednie.

On August 15, 1953, he married the love of his life, Dolly (Olga) Lopushanski. Bill proudly served in the U.S. Navy from 1950-1954 aboard the aircraft carrier WASP CV-18. After serving his country, they moved to the Youngstown area and became members of Westminster Presbyterian Church.

Bill was an avid bowler and golfer. He was a member of the Eagles FOE 213 and the Blvd Golf League for a number of years. He enjoyed traveling with his wife to Jensen Beach, FL, Phoenix, AZ and Pennsylvania to visit friends and family for many years.

Above all else, Bill loved his family. His daughters and grandchildren were his pride and joy. He never missed an opportunity to see their accomplishments, whether it be art shows, dance recitals, dive meets or baseball and basketball games.

Bill always had a smile for everyone and left a legacy of love and was a true example of how we should live our lives.

Memories of Bill will live on through his family; his wife of 67 years, Dolly, his daughters Terri (Ed) Fannon, Kim (Kenny) Kreps, Kristen (Kevin) Rast; his grandchildren Joe (Julie) DeLisio, Jenna DeLisio, Kendahl Kreps, Kylie Kreps and Madison Rast; his great granddaughters Bailey Ann and Maci Rose DeLisio.
