This is a tribute to Ray Hoffstetter's dad, Edward Hofstetter. Ray said, "Dad loved to follow the happenings on YT, the pictures and videos."
(If you've followed Ray's posts on YT, you will know that his dad, Edward, lived life to the fullest, almost to his final day. To me, Ray's posts about doing things with his dad and his photos showing his dad on his tractor are a testament to a loving father/son relationship.)
Edward's obituary follows the photographs...
