Charles Edward Hetzler, 76, died Thursday, October 31, 2024.
Born March 24, 1948, Charles Edward Hetzler, Jr. was the son of the late Charles E. Hetzler and Mary Gilchrist Hetzler, and was raised in Patterson Heights, Beaver Falls, PA. Charles “Ed” started his life baptized into St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Beaver Falls, and converted to Judaism later in life. Ed graduated with honors from Pennsylvania State University in 1970, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering. In 1977 he married his late wife Carole who passed in 2001, first living in western Pennsylvania, then moving to Hudson, MA in 1994.
Ed participated in the Hudson Arts Council, taught fiddle and guitar lessons, and created and performed with the small Early American music group called “Cnoic Glasa”, Gaelic for “over the green hills”. Ed was a life-long lover of dogs, feeling they truly are man's best friend. One of the highlights of his past twenty years has been his participation in a small book club with some of his dearest friends, from Temple Beth El, Sudbury.
Ed will be buried with his wife Carole, in Forestvale Cemetary, Hudson, MA.
