He married Jan Piety in a whirlwind romance, and together they built a life centered on faith, service, and raising their daughters, Kathy and Mary, while welcoming an extended family of friends, firefighters, and ambulance crews. After serving in the Army, he founded Edwards Blacksmith Shop in 1966, becoming known for expert metalwork, inventive problem solving, and lively storytelling.
