January 3, 1933 – January 30, 2023
The family of Ed Pruden are sad to announce he passed away on January 30, 2023. Big Ed was born in Tofield, AB, the son of John Peter Pruden and Viola Edith Lindgren. He was very proud of his Swedish, Metis, and fur trade ancestry.
Ed worked for Alberta Government Telephones (now Telus) for 34 years and was retired for 35 years. The most important thing in Ed’s life was his family and his happiest times were spent at the family cabin at Burnstick Lake and family celebrations.
Ed is survived by his wife of 68 years, Myrna; his three children, Leslie Pruden, Howard (Regina) Pruden, Marcy (Kelly) Brett; 6 grandchildren, Kalista Pruden, Ben (Melissa) Pruden, Joel (Tiffany) Pruden, Hannah (David) Pruden, Amy (Trevor) Mailey, Haley (Hans) Brett; 6 great grandchildren, Avalyn, Liliana, Emery, Olivia, Zoe, and Parker Edward; brother-in-law Monty Pharis, niece Stacy (Ernie) Warrack, and nephew Warren (Leanne) Pharis.
In keeping with Ed’s wishes, no funeral service will be held and a private family gathering will take place a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer’s Society
