Edward Robert Stelmaski, of Bensalem, PA, passed away peacefully at home on April 1, 2025, at the age of 87. 

Born on July 7, 1937, in Philadelphia, PA, to the late Edward and Blanche Stelmaski. Edward lived a full and meaningful life surrounded by his loving family, his family was the center of his world, and he treasured every moment spent with them. Edward proudly served his country in the U. S. Army, where he was stationed in France on a communication detail, and was honorably discharged. He dedicated many years of his life to carpentry, where his skilled craftsmanship left a lasting impact. He loved a good Manhattan, and was an avid fan of the Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies. Though a quiet man, Edward held dear the memories of family vacations to Myrtle Beach and Cape May, and the joyous 4th of July gatherings at his brother's bungalow at the Columbus Country Club. 

He was preceded in death by his son, Edward R. Stelmaski, Jr. Edward was a devoted husband to his loving wife Margaret of 64 years; he was a loving father to Dyan Lee (Aaron), and a cherished grandfather to Thomas Weed and Andrew Weed. He is also survived by his step-granddaughters Brenna Lee and Kelly Lee.

He will be deeply missed by his loving family and all who had the privilege of knowing him. 

Family and friends will be received at the James O. Bradley Funeral Home, Inc., 260 Bellevue Ave., Penndel, PA 19047 on Tuesday, April 15, 2025 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM with a Memorial Service to be held at 12:00 PM.
