He also taught JROTC for eight years at Hermon and Nokomis High Schools. Ed was a prankster, an avid Red Sox and Patriots fan. He was a “grillmaster” and “bacon aficionado.” He was the type of man who would drop anything to help you out and made sure his family and extended family were taken care of. He leaves behind his high school sweetheart and wife of thirty-nine years Elizabeth “Lizzie” (Brown) Lord. When he met her, two families joined as one. Ed also leaves behind three children, Edwin G. Lord III and his wife Wanda of Pittsfield, Heather M. Kelly and her husband Kenn of Bangor, Bryan N.
