Edwin Huth Sr.

Edwin Alfred Huth Sr. passed away peacefully at The Gables of Green on October 8, 2019 at the age of 88. Born on June 16, 1931, Ed was a long time resident of Akron. He served in the Army during the Korean War and received many awards including the Bronze Star for his bravery. After coming home, he proudly earned a living as a union plumber. He loved being a handyman to many and shared his ‘creative’ repairs proudly. There was nothing he could not fix with a little duct tape! Ed was an active member and Eucharistic Minister at several Catholic parishes throughout the Akron area, including St. Bernard’s, Sacred Heart, St. Eugene’s, and Nativity of the Lord Jesus. Ed is joining his adoring wife, Judy, in heaven and will be sorely missed by his loving children, Kimberly Brown (Dennis), Ed Jr. (Leslie), Brian (Johnna), Karen Martin (Jim), Ken (Patti), Kris Ledford (John), and Kelly Squire (Larry), many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
