On December 28, 1950, Ed married Lois “Marlene” Koeppen at the St. Paul’s Lutheran parsonage in Ute. The couple met in 1940 when Marlene started attending school in the same town as Ed. They were blessed with four children: Debra, Carol, Kenny, and Michael. Ed worked at Western Iowa Experimental Farm from 1947 to 1951 when he was drafted into the Army in October of 1951.

The couple farmed for 25 years living on 5 different farms in 4 counties so they made many friends. In 1978 they had a farm sale and built a new home in Ricketts, IA and Ed began working at Farmland Foods until 1992 when he retired. Ed worked various jobs during his retirement including the pie factory in Mapleton, IA., the campgrounds in Storm Lake and Lake View, IA. and drove a limo for Glen Lewis for six years.
