On November 18, 2024, Edward M. Wroblewski, 77, of East Greenbush, NY, passed away peacefully in his sleep while at Daughters of Sarah Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Albany, NY.
He is also survived by his loving in-laws Eileen Campbell and her husband John Duggan, Paul (Diane) Campbell, Diane (Ralph) Conforti and Joanne (Bart) Hunter;
Ed was born in Albany, NY. He grew up in Guilderland and played baseball and football for Guilderland High School. He graduated from Guilderland High School in 1965. He took several classes at Geneseo State College, but went on to graduate with a BS in Management and Economics from Russell Sage College in Troy, NY in 1982. He accomplished his degree while working full time and attending school full time.
He moved to East Greenbush in 2003 to be with Nancy, at which point he became a retired life member of the fire department. Ed and Nancy were married in 2004 and celebrated 20 years of marriage this past October.
He was a 20 year employee of NYS with his last position being a consultant/field rep for the New York State Insurance Fund. He retired in 2015.
He also played on the Delmar Fire Department softball team.
Ed was also an avid NY Giants fan, which if you follow the team, can sometimes be very challenging, but never gave up on them.
In addition to his love of sports, Ed was a voracious reader. He was proud to say that he had read every book on his bookcase, where there are over 500 books displayed.
Before becoming ill, and beginning to decline,Ed lived his life with great joy. He had an out-going personality and often was the life of the party. He made many friends along the way and will be greatly missed by all.
It is very sad that Alzheimer’s deprived him, and all who loved him, of so much in his later years.
Contributions to the Alzheimer’s Association in Ed’s name (alz.org/donate) would be appreciated.
