At the age of 19 he enlisted in the Navy and served five years on the HMCS Discovery, Stadacona and Magnificent where he received his training in aircraft mechanics. After finishing his training in the Navy, he moved to Winnipeg. He started working for MacDonald Bros. Aircraft in 1951, which later became Bristol Aerospace.

After retiring from Bristol Aerospace, Edmond very much enjoyed spending time out at his cottage in St. Malo. A place that now holds a lifetime of memories. He took great enjoyment in watching his grandsons, Chad and Cameron play soccer and very rarely missed a game. Edmond was a devoted husband and father. Although his work took a big part of his life, he always made time for his family. There are many fond memories of family camping trips and outings. He was very much involved in his children's sports, taking them to all of their games, and supporting them in every step of their lives. Edmond had a very unique trait, and that was the ability to touch the hearts of everyone he had come in contact with. The family would like to thank Dr. Harris and Dr. Khan for their great care, also all the staff of the 3rd floor, palliative care for all their kindness and extraordinary care. Also to all his friends that brightened his days with their visits.
