Ed was born and raised in Centerville, Iowa, and attended Northern Arizona University where he was drafted by the National Football League Houston Oilers where he played as defensive tackle. Ed obtained his insurance license in the Life and Health sector and was one of the original founders, and current partners of Duley, Bolwar & Associates, Inc. of Scottsdale Arizona. Ed was one of four children born to the late Equilla and Charles Duley, and the beloved husband of his beautiful wife Trisha. Ed will forever be remembered by his devoted children and their families; John, Anna, Derek and Brandon Pederson, Joanie Marie, William, Carson and Colton Muller, Charles Richard, Erin, Cash and Blake Duley, Jay David and fiancé Julie Barone, Kaitlyn Duley, his brothers Bob and Jim, sister Ruth, and many cousins, along with countless other friends and charitable organizations whom were blessed to know him. Ed loved laughing, being with his family, having fun with his friends. Every person that walked into his home he treated like family. If you met him once you would never forget him, and he would never forget you. He touched the lives of many people with his smile, and generosity. An amazing presence; an amazing man.
