Edward Frank Wagner

Edward F. Wagner, 75, of Feura Bush, passed away peacefully with his wife by his side on Monday, January 31, 2022 at St. Peter’s Hospital.

Ed was born on August 10, 1946 in Albany to the late Elizabeth and Everett E. Wagner, Sr. and grew up in Feura Bush. He was a graduate of RCS High School. Ed’s 50 plus year long career consisted of building a great deal of the infrastructure throughout the Capital Region. Ed was a member of the IUOE Local 158 (106).

Ed is survived by his wife Juanita of 56 years; his son Mark (Diane) and daughters, Michelle and Nicole (TJ); grandsons Christopher, Garrett, Jordan (Jena); and granddaughter, Mackenzie (Jacob). He is also survived by his great-grandchildren Armani, Avery, Adeline and Elliott.  He adored is his grand-dog Lenny the Lummox (Basset Hound). Ed is also survived by his brother, Everett, Jr. (Reesa-predeceased); his niece, Heidi-Lynn (Rich); nephew, Michael (Toni); and numerous brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews.

Ed loved the outdoors and was devoted to his wife and children. The absolute joy in his life was helping his children, grandchildren/great-grandchildren. Ed was a jack of all trades and known as “Mr. Fix-It” by his kids, grandkids and great-grandkids…there is nothing Pa can’t fix or build.   Ed built his home on Rt. 32 and took much pride in his work. He was very meticulous in the upkeep of his home... not a blade of grass out of place.
