Edward L. Graham

Edward L. Graham, 93, of Linesville, Pa, passed away peacefully at home on January 16, 2025. He was born November 6, 1931, in Dorset, Ohio, son of the late Lloyd and Elsie (Smaltz) Graham. 

He married Wilma Fiest on March 17, 1951. She preceded him in death in 2004. Ed moved his family to Linesville, Pa in 1958 and purchased his farm. He took great pride in his farm, and it showed. He was always willing to assist neighbors with whatever was needed, machinery or labor. He instilled honesty and a hard work ethic into his family. He will be sadly missed and always be remembered for his silly Dad jokes and warm smile. His grandkids always put a smile on his face. 

Ed received excellent care from Hospice and Home Instead alongside his family. They helped fulfill his wish to remain at home. He was preceded in death by his brother Robert Graham and a sister Evelyn Doering. 

He is survived by three sons, Don Graham of Linesville, Roger Graham (Lindy) of Linesville, Michael Graham (Lynne) of Linesville; two daughters, Debra Jesse (Dave) of Linesville, Peggy Fox (Dan) of Conneaut Lake; nine grandchildren, Jennifer Lisko, Jeff Graham, Tyler Graham, Mitchell Graham, Luke Graham, Brad Fox, Casey Morea, Rebecca Boyd and Jason Jesse; thirteen great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his longtime friend, Allene. 

Cremation was chosen. There will be no service. 

Arrangements have been entrusted to Royal-Coleman Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Linesville.

Memorials may be made to Hospice of Crawford County, 766 Liberty St., Meadville, Pa 16335.
