Mr. Haney was born March 31, 1932, in New Castle, a son of the late Martin and Alice (McCormick) Haney.

Ed served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.

He retired from Tanner Plating in New Castle, where he worked as a sandblaster for 25 years. Ed previously owned and operated a business in Simi Valley, CA, where he quarried stone.

Ed was of the Catholic faith.

A hardworking man with a keen sense of humor, his true passion in life was working his land which he affectionately called, "The North Forty." Ed spent countless hours on his tractor, and also purchased, restored, and sold many farm tractors throughout his life.
