Edward Rowan, 98, of Angel Road, passed away and joined his wife Rose, Tuesday morning, August 14, 2018 at Gateway House of Peace, Ballston Spa.

He was born on January 16, 1920 in Pompton Lakes, NJ.  He proudly served in the United States Army Air Force during World War II.

Ed enjoyed the simple pleasures of country life: woodworking, gardening, fishing, boating, oak tree naps, clean mountain air and water, church usher talking and laughing with people.  His dream was to own a big piece of land, build a ranch home and retire in the country. Corinth made his dream happen.

He was predeceased by his wife Rose in 2008.
