Ed was born and raised in St. Louis, MO. When Christ came into his life as a young man, Ed became deeply involved in Ministering in the Church. He and his wife, Betty, have taught many Sunday school classes, and have held small Bible studies in their home for about 40 years.

Since retiring Ed has been involved in missions in South Africa. After his first trip to Africa, he gained a heart and soul for the lost and the least. The Lord laid on his heart a few years ago a compassion and a love for our precious Senior Citizens. Becaming the Senior Care Coordinator at Covenant Life in 2015, he and his team visit people in assisted living homes, their own homes, and in hospitals when needed.

Ed loves to read, ride his bicycle, do leather work, dote on his 2 beautiful daughters, Cathy and Julie, and his five awesome grandchildren, and spend time with Betty, his amazing “bride” of 55 years.

Eric's passion is using technology to engage people in worship. He began serving vocationally as a Student Director in 2003 and has served in several other positions through the years. He joined Covenant Life's staff in the spring of 2017 moving from Orlando to Sarasota with his wife, Vicki and their three children.
