Irvine Has Lost One of Its Most Cherished Volunteers: Ed McNew
It is with deep sadness that we report the passing of longtime Irvine resident, veteran and volunteer extraordinaire, Ed McNew.
Ed & his wife Louise spent 60 wonderful years together. They settled here in Irvine in the 1970s, living in the Turtle Rock and University Park neighborhoods.
Ed was instrumental in the City’s naming of Sepulveda Vista Point in South Irvine. This year, the City is naming the road leading up to the park after Ed.
Ed also volunteered alongside other veterans and their families in support of the Veterans Memorial Park & Cemetery at the Great Park. In fact, he gathered more than 4,000 signatures for the Veterans Cemetery ballot initiative.
On behalf of everyone here at ICNV: Irvine was lucky to have Ed McNew for as long as we did. Our condolences go out to Ed’s daughter Linda, his family, and all of those who knew and loved him.
