Berkshire - Edward Lawrence LaFountain Jr., 74, died Friday April 10, 2020 at his home due to heart complications.
Ed was born the oldest of 12 children to Edward L. and Gloria (Gordon) LaFountain.
On November 18, 1964, he married Priscilla Mae Tobin. Together they lived in Westford for 34 years until Priscilla passed in 1998.
Ed loved the woods and was self-employed for over 40 years as a logger. He enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren and great grandchildren. They loved to listen to his storieswhen I was a kid.
He loved the time when his family would gather for holidays and
special occasions. In his later years, he enjoyed working on his farm with his goats and cows. He enjoyed sitting on his porch watching his animals and the wildlife on the Rolling Hills.
