Based on his personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior, Ed Livingston passed from this lifelong earthly home in Sheridan, Wyoming, to his Heavenly home with God on July 16, 2006.

Ed was born on April 30, 1939, in Sheridan, Wyoming to Amil and Lorraine (Browne) Livingston. He was a lifelong resident of Sheridan and graduated from Sheridan High School and Sheridan College. He also attended the University of Wyoming and Moody Bible Institute.

Ed married Nancy J. Ralston in Sheridan on September 30, 1972, and the couple made their home in Sheridan raising their children here.

During his working years, Ed operated E.K. Williams Accounting and worked in the family-owned businesses operating a salvage yard, working in automobile sales, and Gasamat. He now was the sales representative for the National Association of the Self-Employed.

Ed was an active member of the First Baptist Church in Sheridan, and at the time of his death, he was serving as an elder in the church, and he was a member of the Wyoming Republican Party. He was also a former member of the Jaycees, the All-American Indian Days, and a past Sheridan County School District 2 Board Member.

He enjoyed hunting, fishing, reading, and opera music, but his greatest joy was furthering the Kingdom of the Lord Jesus by his life and acts of service to and for the community.
