At an early age he began working on a milk route which led to him working at the Portage Creamery but it was his love of the road that led him to a career in truck driving for Reimers, Kleysens, and EBD Transport. When Ed wasn't working, he could be found riding his bike, having coffee with friends or spending time with family.
