Norman Edward "Ed" Calhoun went to his eternal life with Christ on April 21, 2017 after living a beautiful and rich life on earth.

He was born in Lewistown, PA on April 13,1946 to Blair Robert and Clara Valerie "Dot" Calhoun. Ed is survived by his wife of 26 years Cindy Calhoun (Zawalish), his two children and four grandsons: son, Bryan Calhoun, daughter-in-law Heidi, grandsons, Grant and Adam in Bethel Park. PA. Daughter Beth Hoffman (Calhoun), son-in-law Andrew Hoffman, grandsons, Drew and Michael, in Hagerstown, MD. He is also survived by his brother, Andrew Calhoun and his wife Kathy in Enola, PA.

After serving in the Navy, Ed graduated from the University of Pittsburg with a degree in Criminal Justice. He began his career as a Deputy U.S. Marshall in Harrisburg. He transferred to the Criminal Investigation Division of the Internal Revenue service, where he retired after 30 years of service. He loved being a Special Agent and firearms instructor.

He had many interests in his wonderful life including firefighting, train and RV travel, scuba diving, photography, scouting and elongated penny machines. He continued his dad's work at the Lewistown train station by serving as the Project manager for the installation of a fire suppression system. Ed was also a Mason and Shriner. He was Past Master of Lodge 91 in Shepherdstown. He worked with the Philadelphia Shriner's Hospital as a transporter.

He was involved in the Fire Service for more than 40 years. He instructed at the Pennsylvania Fire Academy, and had been the Fire Chief of the Broughton Volunteer Fire Department and a long term member of the Needmore Fire Department.

He will be missed greatly by those whose lives he touched. Let us remember that we need not mourn when great men as these are lost, but rather celebrate that they had lived among us.
