Edmond served his country for two years in the Army during the Korean War. He then attended LSU and Nicholls St. University, graduating with a Master's Degree + 30 in Education. He made a positive and lasting impact on many young lives as a teacher in Lafourche Parish for over 40 years and also as Manager and Director of the Lockport Recreation District and Lockport Swimming Pool. He was a member of the American Legion, an avid LSU and Saints fan, and he enjoyed traveling, gardening, cooking, reading and doing crossword puzzles. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him. The family would like to thank St. Joseph Hospice, Dr. James Ellis and the nursing staff at Thibodaux Cancer Center.
