Edward Hurayt

Edward Hurayt, of Masury, Ohio, peacefully passed away on Sunday, October 23, 2022, following a brief illness. He was 90.

Edward was born August 4, 1932, in Sharon, Pennsylvania, a son to John & Anna (Bruzik) Hurayt.

A proud veteran of the U.S. Army, Ed dedicated over 40 years as a pipe cutter at Sawhill Tubular before retiring.

Mr. Ed may be best remembered as a lifeguard & swim instructor at the Buhl Club. In addition, he was a member of the Shenango Valley Underwater Rescue Team. In his spare time, he enjoyed recycling before it became poplar, gardening, and canning hot peppers. He also liked eating raw onion sammiches.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Vivian, on July 16, 2019; an infant daughter, Tami Sue Hurayt; and by his siblings, Ann Usko, John, Daniel, & Andrew Hurayt.

In accordance to his wishes, no calling hours or services will be held.
