age 90 of Strongsville, passed away peacefully on August 21, 2023, at Holy Family Hospice. Born January 22, 1933, to Louis and Josephine (Tristka) Krejny, Edward grew up in a large extended family in a house bustling with activity.

Ed was preceded in death by his parents and his siblings William, Robert, Jerry, Mildred, and Virginia Krejny, Jean (Krejny) Banaszak, Frank Kolar, Elizabeth (Kolar) Zemek, and Fred Kolar. Edward is survived by a multitude of loving nieces and nephews, grand nieces and nephews, and great-grand nieces and nephews.

Ed served in the Army Medical Corps in Japan as a lab technician. Upon return from the military, he worked as an electrical engineer for different companies over the course of his career. His proudest achievement was his work on ion engine auxiliary propulsion for NASA during his time with TRW. Ed was an avid rail watcher and shortwave radio DXer. He often could be found at the railroad tracks, hoping for a unique rail car sighting. His hobbies included reading, reminiscing and sharing stories with family and friends, and enjoying a “potable” cup of coffee.

The family wishes to thank the dedicated nurses and staff of Holy Family Hospice for their care and for providing Ed comfort.

The family will receive friends in celebration of Edward’s life at Humenik Funeral Chapel 14200 Snow Rd Brook Park, 44142 on Tuesday, August 22  from 3-7 PM, where Funeral Services will be celebrated on Wednesday at 10:30 A M
