KELSO- Edward “Ed” Skinner, 75, of Kelso, Washington, passed away unexpectedly on March 7, 2025. He was born on June 30, 1949, in New Jersey and grew up there, graduating from Edison High School.

He leaves this world too soon, and he will be deeply missed by family, friends, and all who shared in his laughter and stories.
