Edward Paul Boyer (Eddie) of Palm Bay, Florida

Passed away on Wednesday 3/12/2025 while undergoing cardiac surgery. Born in Worcester, Massachusetts on 8/14/46, he was the son of Edward Boyer and Lillian Tomaiolo.

He met his future wife Patti at Villanova University where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in business, followed by an M.B.A from Suffolk University. Eddie began his career as an accountant for Raytheon Corp, then he later became the Chief Financial Officer for Gentex Corp in Carbondale, PA. He was also employed in the business office for Allied Services in Scranton, and before retiring in 2014, he served as the business manager for Keystone College in La Plume, PA. The majority of his adult life was spent in Clarks Summit, PA.

Since he loved the outdoors so much, he focused upon embellishing his lawn. He loved animals, along with Patti, especially dogs (Buddy was his favorite). Eddie was an accomplished golfer and enjoyed golfing with his buddies, Bobby and Rick. He also enjoyed bowling, fishing and card games with another good buddy Walter. We won’t forget that Eddie was an avid “Jeopardy” tv fan, and so adept at the game.

Upon retiring, the family moved to Palm Bay, Florida where he also enjoyed walking the beach. Both he and Patti became weekly volunteers at the Brevard Zoo in Melbourne, Florida.

Eddie is survived by his wife of fifty six years, Patti; two sons Eddie Boyer Jr and his wife Kattya Boyer of Kissimmee, Florida and Darren Boyer M.D and his fiancé Airisha Ramirez M.D of San Diego, California. Two grandsons Nathan and Noah, and two granddaughters Mina and Carissa, all of whom he adored.

Ed was a tall quick witted handsome guy, who never lost his New England accent- we will miss hearing him.

A memorial service, honoring his life, will be held on Saturday April 5, 2025 at 11:30 am at the Brownlie & Maxwell Funeral Home in Melbourne, Florida.

I am broken 💔 hearted at Ed's passing. I will miss him and our annual trips to Hilton Head. I will miss his stories and humor. He loved his family and especially his grandchildren. I will treasure my memories of our last trip, weathering the hurricane in Hilton head, with Patti, Katie, and his grandchildren Nathan and Noah. Good times. Sending healing thoughts to all.
