September 28, 1923, 1 of 7 children in Duluth, MN to Ernest and Ruth Dew. Edgar accepted the Lord as his personal Savior at a very early age. Throughout his life he served the Lord in many capacities to include
Sunday school teacher, and sharing the gift of music given by God. He instilled the love of God in his children's lives.
Edgar was educated in Duluth, MN and later attended Wayne County Community College in Michigan taking

great grandchildren, brothers Leonard Dew, Duane (Margaret) Dew and sister Jeanette Roach, Sister-in Law Shirley Dew. Edgar was predeceased by sisters Lucille Warr and Mary Guthrie, and brother Earnest
