Pray for Edward Kenneth Stelzer and his family.

Edward Kenneth Stelzer of Armada passed away at Wellbridge of Romeo on Sunday, February 16, 2020 at the age of 81 years.

Edward was born on January 6, 1939 in Detroit. He was born to John and Gertrud (nee Werner) Stelzer. On November 25, 1961, he married Marjorie M. Danielak and they had 58 wonderful years and raised four children together.

Ed owned and operated a sheet metal fabrication business and he alongside his two sons ran it until just this past year when he officially retired. He enjoyed bringing joy and laughter to people’s lives, even attending Oops “clown college” to perfect his practical jokes and humor.

Ed was passionate about his church community at St. Mary Mystical Rose and his own Spiritual Growth. He served as EME, RCIA Director and Bible Study Facilitator at St. Mary’s. Ed loved helping people in whatever way he could. He could be best described as simple, hardworking, walked in faith and doing good deeds for others. Ed will be greatly missed by his loving family, devoted catholic community, work family and dear friends.
