Edwin Trillas Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Joseph J Smith Funeral Home Inc on Jul. 8, 2025.
Edwin L. Trillas (Ned), aged 72, passed away peacefully on the 4th of July, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family. He was born on May 1, 1953, in Queens, NY, son of the late Luis and Margaret (née Blum) Trillas.
For many years, Edwin was the proud owner and master dental technician of Trildentco Dental Laboratory, where he combined his passion for precision with a commitment to excellence. His work was not just a profession but an art, and his dedication to his craft earned him the respect and admiration of colleagues and clients alike.
Ned's interests extended beyond the walls of his laboratory. He was an avid gardener and home landscaper, finding solace and joy in the beauty of nature. Beyond the outdoors, he had a talent for crafting jewelry. Over the years, he made many pieces for Marie and their family members; heirlooms for generations to come.
Ned enjoyed the challenge of crafting the perfect blend of Bourbon. Along with his close friend, they were affectionately known as the "Bourbon Bros." His hot sauce collection was equally impressive, and he was always eager to share his latest fiery concoction with anyone brave enough to try.
Ned was the beloved husband of Marie and father to Brent, Kyle, and Pamela Trillas; and granddaughters Adeline and Caroline. He was predeceased by his parents and his sister, Cathleen Enders.
Services will be held privately at a later date.
