Edward John Moskal, Jr.

Palmyra – Ed passed away peacefully on January 14, 2021 at the age of 81.  He fought for every additional day with his loving family.  Ed was proud of his Utica roots, loved gathering with his family and enjoyed 50 fun years on Gates Street with his caring neighbors.  He proudly served in the US Navy and the Air Force before graduating from the Rochester Institute of Technology.  He retired from Eastman Kodak after 25 years of service.

Ed is predeceased by his parents, Ed and Sadie Moskal and his sister Barbara Osterman.  Ed is survived by his wife of 58 years, Alice Moskal, his three children Karleen Cirulli (Robert), Edward Moskal (Cyndi) and Paula Strauss (Mike), eight grandchildren, Christopher (Melissa), Jason (Lauren), Eric, Isabelle, Daniel, Dylon, Justen and Olivia, and three great-grandchildren, Cole, Delilah and Josephine.
