Sadly, we have been informed of the passing of Comrade Mike Edwards, Thursday March 19 2020, in his 72nd year.
Left to mourn are his wife Lynn, children Cassandra, Cory , and Natalie, and grandchildren.
Mike was a 29-year Member of Branch 530, and was currently the President of the K-W Naval Association.
Further details will be posted when available.
From the KW Record
Michael passed away peacefully with family by his side at St. Mary's Hospital, Kitchener on Thursday, March 19, 2020, at the age of 71. Cherished and loving husband of Lynn (nee Coxon), for 52 years or as Mike would say "two life sentences". Dear and proud father of Cory (Tracey), Casandra (Dustin Stewart) and Natalie (Danny Bisante). He will be sadly missed and forever loved by his three grandchildren Maria, Luciano and Joseph. Predeceased by his parents Russel and Grace (nee Schmitt) Edwards.
Mike had a passion for cars, specifically Mopars, which he collected and restored over the years. He loved NASCAR and very rarely missed watching a race. Mike was a "snowbird" and loved spending the winters down south with family and friends.
Mike will be greatly missed by his family and friends and forever hold a dear place in their hearts. Mike was a strong, passionate and caring leader for the K-W Naval Association where he served as president for over 25 years. He also held post with the K-W Poppy Fund, K-W Veterans Council and was the Executive Vice President of the Royal Canadian Naval Association. Mike played an integral part in having the Veteran's Green Memorial completed.
At Michael's request, there will be no visitation. A memorial service to celebrate Michael's life will be held at a later date at the K-W Naval Association and will be published in a later edition of The Record. Condolences for the family and donations to the K-W Poppy Fund would be appreciated and may be arranged by contacting the Erb and Good Family Funeral Home, 171 King St. S., Waterloo at www.erbgood.com or 519-745-8445.
