Edward H. Drelinger Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Edward H. Drelinger of Dennis, Massachusetts, born in Worcester, Massachusetts, who passed away on March 3, 2024, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Edward H. Drelinger to pay them a last tribute.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Harold Drelinger and Loretta Drelinger (Ciarfella); and his sisters, Rose Marie Hodgson (late Jay) and Nancy Shippole. He is survived by: his daughters, Amy S. Drelinger of Worcester and Jill K. Walpole of Marlborough; his grandchildren, Kyle Drelinger and Katelyn Cormier; his brothers, Joseph E. Drelinger (Constance) of Holden and Robert W. Drelinger (Cynthia) of Worcester; and his in-laws, Bruce and Patricia Webber of Shrewsbury. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews.

The unwelcomed pandemic encouraged them both to put the hammers, power tools, paintbrushes and blueprints down professionally and take some time to enjoy the downtime…and they did.

Expressions of sympathy in Ed's name may be made to MSPCA Angel, 350 South Huntington Street, Boston, MA 02130 or https://www.mspca.org or Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation, 230 East Ohio Street, Suite 500 Chicago, Illinois 60611.
