Thanks to a suggestion by Elkslayer91, I have found some information by calling the school district where he was a board member. The school office told me that his wife is scheduled to get out of the hospital tomorrow. That's wonderful news.
Ethan Edwards' name was Mark (PM me for his last name, please, so searches for it don't take anyone to the Campfire. Also, PM me for the name of the nearby florist and the Funeral Home).
Thank you for finding out the info. Do you know if a collection can be arranged for his family?

I don't know. Please let me know if you find anything about that. I cannot get a return call by leaving messages on Mark's phone.
I contacted the funeral home and they are willing to ask the family if they’d accept a collection. I provided my contact info so they can get back to me.

Also, she believes that Feuerborn Funeral Home in Iola will be handling the funeral arrangements. The flourist nearby is Duane's Flowers, and they also can be contacted for information about dates and where to send flowers, notes, etc..
Great news About his wife!
TRH, please post his obituary if you find it.
Update appreciated. Very good to hear mom is on the mends.
TRH and Gooch, Thanks for your effort and for caring so much about a well esteemed member of our campfire family. I’m following this and I’ll follow up as this develops.
I’m constantly amazed at the genuine kindness of the regulars here. I’ve been here awhile now and I should be used to the compassion that’s regularly displayed by the good guys here but so often you all go above and beyond for someone that you (we) have only known through the cyber world that I’m honored to be a part of this “family”.
You guys are excellent examples of what makes good men great!

BobBrown, this is uncalled for. Especially on a thread about a fire member that has passed on.
Here's a link to the funeral home mentioned but he's not mentioned yet:
https://www.feuerbornfuneral.com/obituaries/?filter=ethan+edwards
Please keep us informed, I’d like to send a few bucks.
I’m waiting for the phone call. The funeral home said they were contacting the family today. Im on the west coast, so if I don’t get a call in the next 30 min, it probably won’t be today.
Great News on Mark's wife.Thanks for the info!

Great news Hawk!
Very happy to see the kids are still going to have Mom around.
Paul Barnyard is a fugktard who has already schidt on EE’s memory. He’s only posting here for giggles
Still a shock to read about.

Nice try Paul. Trying to dig yourself out of that hole you got yourself into on the first go around?

Yes, indeed it is.
Great news About his wife!
TRH, please post his obituary if you find it.
Check your PM's immediately, so you can make a very important edit.
I applaud your actions and motives, but I don’t know putting his (their) names out there and their hometown is a great idea. If he wanted to use his real name on here he would’ve.
Look at the ass holes that popped up on the other thread. Lord knows how many read and don’t post and want to be less than respectful

I didn't want to derail that thread to say this. Maybe this will shed some light on the spirit of the post. I never really know what to say in a thread like that. I wondered what folks would say about me if I passed. Or if I were killed in a bicycle accident. I'd be sorely disappointed to know that nobody would make any spandex or bicycle comments. It's the way we interact in life, and I'd hope you'd continue on in the same spirit in death. I may be wrong on this, but I think Ethan would have expected and wanted for us to interact the way we always did. The way I saw it, my post was a raise of the glass with a little elbow and a wink, and I think Ethan would have cracked a smile and said, GFY spandex covtard. If that was a miscalculation, it certainly wasn't to make light of his passing, to disrespect him or to anger those with whom he was friends. And with that, I'll discontinue this aside in this thread.
Dang i missed this. What happened to Ethan

BGG is hitting on some points big time.
Might be a good idea to take down the FH link and EE,s name .
Last thing his family needs is scumball Liberal Socialist Democrat trolls from here making comments his family might see.
T
Maybe PM,s to TRH and Gooch for info would be a better idea.
If ya cant take the stuff down due to time or being quoted .
Maybe Bin can ghost this thread and you 2 start a "PM me" for info thread.
That way EE,s stuff aint out in the clear and you guys got some QC in the process.
Just saying....
But think how any one of these scumball Liberal Socialist Democrat sockpuppet trolls can make stuff really bad for his family.....

Exactly what I was saying dude.
Last thing I would want when I pass is for my old lady or kids to have to deal with blowback from cowardly ne’er-do-wells from the ‘net that didn’t like me or some things I posted.
Just my $.02. But it is nice to see the ‘fire come together for him. I didn’t know him from Adam, but he twice took the time to PM me about things we’d posted back and forth to make sure the air was clear. He was a standup guy and the fire is lessened without him.
Gooch you got a pm.
TRH get in touch with Gooch or vice versa.
Not being a interloper.....
Just trying to preempt some possibly ugly schit......

Their are some scumballs on this site I would not put anything past doing.
I butted heads with Cole Younger many times early on.
Became a online friend to Ethan Edwards over time.
He was a solid person.
Nuff said....
Dang i missed this. What happened to Ethan
Original thread from TRH
I'm sure glad Ethan's wife is doing better. I'll continue to pray for her and the rest of the family though, they need it. Thanks for the update Hawkeye.
TRH is there any way we could send you some money through PM for his family? I think me and several others would trust you to hold it until the time was right.

Spot on Goat and Rene. Family needs their space to grieve.
Anyone know how old EE was. Also wonder if he had any health problems. Not trying to be nosey. I'm still trying to make some sense out of the China virus after a year & a half.

I have looked at Mark, his wife and daughters facebook. Im not sure if it be proper to grab the one picture and put it here. But personally, its nice to finally put a face with a name. God bless him.

It would not.
He’d posted pics in years past like a lot of us.

Gooch is in communication with either the funeral home or the nearby florist about the possibility of setting up a Go Fund Me for them, so all can go there to donate to the family. I'd rather not take on the responsibility of collecting funds myself. Thanks for the statement of trust, though. Hopefully, Gooch will keep us updated on that and let us know how to donate.
As for making suggested modifications to what I've posted on the open forums, what was still amenable to alteration, I have done in accordance with suggestions I've received. Some of it was quoted by others, and I've asked (via PM) that the quotes be modified accordingly. Some of my early posts are beyond modification by me. I've contacted Rick, and he has looked through my posts and has advised me that he doesn't believe there are any problems with any of it. Not sure what else I can do in this regard. If I've made mistakes, I apologize. I meant well.

I don't like to waste my time wading through all the BS in most of the campfire threads and consider you a mental-case drama-queen of the highest order but, to give credit where credit is due, I appreciate your efforts to communicate what happened and get something set up to help Mark's family. Anybody throwing stones can fugg-off.

I haven’t seen where anybody said anything negative to TRH in relation to his efforts in this regard.
TRH, Thanks again for keeping us informed. If there is a Go fund me account I’m sure it’ll get some interest here as there are no finer men than many of the guys here….and I truly and honestly believe that! I don’t blame you for not wanting to be in charge of collecting and distributing any money collected because no good deed ever goes unpunished but as far as I’m concerned your reputation is solid and I for one trust you implicitly…..I don’t believe that I’m alone in that assessment. 👍

Thanks, Aces. I think Gooch is looking into something along those lines with the funeral home. I will call the funeral home tomorrow and see if he's got something going on with that yet.

Then why did he feel that he made mistakes and felt the need to apologize if somebody didn't find fault with what he did?
I called the mortuary, and they said that someone from the Campfire is going to set up a go fund me page for the family. She gave me the man's name, but of course I won't repeat it, as it's his real name. I'm assuming it's Gooch. So Gooch, let us know how to donate to offset funeral expenses for the family.
PS Mark's wife is out of the hospital, but still quite ill. Also, due to her still being ill, the date of the services is still unknown.

I can't venture a guess as to why. Obviously you can apparently? Put down your sword and shield of virtue and read the thread.
Hopefully the family is not afflicted with the gadflies that abound here.
You’re a good friend, TRH.
Thanks TRH !
More Prayers for EE’s wife and Family.
I’ll check out the Go Fund Me Site.
Them hospital bills for the Miss’s are steep I bet
