Edwin Pankau Obituary
Edwin Francis Pankau
9/29/1931 - 3/29/2018
Edwin was born in Hastings, Nebraska to Thomas and Lulu Pankau. Ed was a retired letter carrier and enjoyed the people on his routes.
He was a loving husband and father, who enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He liked to travel, play cards, and work on puzzles.
Ed also liked to sit on the front porch to socialize with passers by. Many dogs made their way up to him for a treat he was sure to have.
Survivors include his wife, Norma; sisters, Carole (Leon)Threlkel, Janice (Ron) Casias; daughters, Rita St. John, and Robin (Larry) Moore; son, Roger Pankau; and step-children, Tammy Foltz and Ted Fisher.
Those who knew and loved him will remember his quick smile, ready helping hand, and sense of humor.
Memorial service is at a later date.
