A 1958 graduate of Champion High School, he had worked for many years as a Mill Wright for ITT Grinnell. In addition, he also worked at U.S. Gypsum and WCI Steel.

Self was forgotten the day Edward left his home to defend our flag and to help keep our country free when he enlisted with the U.S. Army.

His decorations and citations include: Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Armed Forces Service Medal, Southwest Asia Service Medal with 3 bronze stars, Army Service Ribbon, Overseas Service Ribbon, Kuwait Liberation Medal, and Expert Marksmanship with both rifle and pistol. He was honorably discharged from his duties with the rank of Sergeant.

He was a member of the AMVETS and the National Rifle Association. In his spare time, he enjoyed hunting, photography, trains, and socializing with his friends.

Survivors include: his sons, Ed (Cindy) Kiepper, Jr., Brookfield, Ohio, Frank Kiepper, of Vienna, Ohio, and Paul Kiepper, of Brookfield; 9 grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; his brother, Robert (Ruth Ann) Kiepper, of Champion, Ohio; his sister, Carol Noga, of Southington; and his extended family.

He was preceded in death by the love of his life, Ida Kiepper; daughter-in-law, Tina Kiepper; grandson, George White; great-grandson, Braeden White; and siblings, David Kiepper & Barbara James.
