He was born October 20, 1930 in Massillon, Ohio to Harry and Anna Schoenfeld. He entered the service of his country in 1948 and served five years in the Army Air Force and was a part of the American forces in the Korean War.

He was a member of the Sheet Metal Workers Union 115 based out of Tampa, from which he retired in 1993. 

Ed loved traveling and fishing was his real passion. He even dabbled, a little, at gold prospecting, which his son-in-law, Jerry Holacka, got him into as a member of Lost Dutchman Mining Association. He was also a lifetime member of the VFW and a longtime member of the Moose, both in Morristown. He and his current wife, Billie, lived in the Bean Station area since 2000 and dearly enjoyed the lakes and the friendships that have developed here. He currently attended Bethel United Methodist Church.

He will be missed greatly by all who knew him, especially his children, Linda Holacka and Steve (Patti) Schoenfeld, six grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; siblings, Roy (Gail) Schoenfeld and Gretchen Heffner; and several nieces and nephews, whom he loved dearly. 

A memorial service will be held 10 a.m., Friday, August 13 at Bethel United Methodist Church, 703 North Cumberland St.
