He graduated from Princeton University and received an MBA from Harvard Business School ... Shortly after, he got married and served as an officer in the US Coast Guard. The marriage didn't last, but he did have two daughters, Karen Hogan and Lee Gregory, of whom he was justly proud. Ed's next enlistment was with the DuPont Company in Wilmington, DE where he served faithfully, if not always happily, for 35 years, and where he retired with the title of Assistant Treasurer. Along the way, he got the break of his life when he married Kathie Gray (nee Rayne) of Kennett Square, PA. Kathie brought to the marriage her warm personality and three handsome children, Peter Gray, Lisa McManus, and David Gray and, eventually, four wonderful grandchildren, Becca Gray, Gray McManus, Natalie and Caroline Gray.
