Edward began his career at the Hudson Motor Car Company at age 15 in Detroit; he then went aboard ship sailing the Great Lakes on a freighter. Edward later worked at Beul Aircraft, was self-employed, and closed out his career at Ford Motor Company retiring in 1978. Edward was a devoted husband travelling the world with a wife he adored. He was an avid woodworker, gardener and proud supporter of the Fine Arts. Edward was very proud of his farmboy heritage and strove to show what a "hayseed" could accomplish.

Tenbusch; and two sisters, Loretta Braun and Hyacinth Sadro. Visitation will be held at A.H. Peters Funeral Home in Grosse Pointe at 10am on Wednesday with funeral services to follow at noon.
