I would like to give special tribute to my Uncle, Sergeant Edward Thomas Short, who peacefully passed away on August 18, 2021. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. A very dedicated man to both his family and to his 35 year Military career. Ed enrolled on October 24th, 1961 at the age of 19 starting out as a Gunner in the Artillery at Gagetown Fredericton. He held various roles throughout his career in all three segments of the forces Army, Navy and Air Force. Aside from Ed’s strict Military side, he was a big kid at heart with a great sense of humor who loved to joke around and have fun, bringing cheer and laughter to all.
