Edward A. Moynihan age 73 of Jupiter Florida and formerly of Huntington, NY passed away on April 2nd, 2021 after a courageous battle with prostate cancer. He had a passion for fine wine and dining. Ed was a very generous and kind man. He had a great sense of humor and was a great storyteller. He served his country in the navy during the Vietnam war. When he returned home he joined the NYC transit police department.

He was a loving husband, father and grandfather. Ed is survived by his wife Maureen of 15 years, daughters Keira and Tara, son-in-law Joe, granddaughter Gabriella and loving cousin Maureen. He will truly be missed by all that knew him.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In Lieu of flowers, please make donations to Wounded Warriors.

Hi Maureen- so sorry to hear about Ed. Long struggle for sure as I thought it started out when you were still here at Bay Crest.

Was just recalling with Maureen he was the biggest Yankee fan I know, always having the game on down at the beach. Calling over to me when he heard the Mets score being reported.

Hopefully he’s in a better place after this battle. Big hug out to from home.

My husband Chris and I and our 3 girls Deirdre, Bridget and Aileen had the pleasure to know Ed and spend some very fun times with him and Maureen. Most memorable was our trip to Disney World in 2007. We had so much fun in the parks, dinners and Ed was so young at heart loving every minute of it. We celebrate his beautiful life and mourn his passing. Our deep condolences to Maureen, his children and grandchildren.

I was a brash young Transit cop during the 1980s in the Bronx when Eddie was the Union delegate. He was by far the best hands on union delegate in an emergency that I have ever seen. In a sink or swim environment where tragically so many coworkers sank he taught me how to swim. When he was assigned to the Transit PBA office he had impeccable integrity when others didn’t. If it wasn’t for Eddie I wouldn’t be in my third decade of law enforcement. He was just a class act.

Marilyn and Pete Campione - Cousin

My dear cousin. My sorrow cannot be expressed in a few words. Ed always wore a smile, had a joke to tell, enjoyed fine wine, adored his cousin Mo, and loved you deeply. Your wedding was “a vacation of a lifetime”! May he Rest In Peace. Love love. Marilyn and Pete

Helen Pelkofski Winckler - Cousin

Ed was always a wonderful host when I stayed at Hotel Moe. Kind and funny, I used to laugh when he made faces at things you did. You two were great together. Praying for you to find peace and comfort.

It took a few days to figure out how to honor Ed in this small condolence, it still doesn’t do him justice. I introduced Ed to Maureen more than 25 years ago. Having known both of them, I knew the joy they would share together. They both deserved happiness, and I truly believe they found it in each other’s company. One could look at Ed’s passing and be sad or angry about losing him too soon. I choose to thank him for making Maureen’s life fulfilled. He managed to balance his children, his friends, and Maureen with grace and compassion; traits not often found in crotchety war veterans or retired “cops”. As with most notifications of the demise of someone known to us, it’s a fleeting moment until the distraction of everyday activities takes hold. Please take a few moments in your daily routine to honor Ed by thanking him for whatever it was he bettered your life with. Thanks Ed until we meet again.

Maureen… Les and I were saddened to hear of Ed’s passing. Hoping your memories of his love and laughter will bring you comfort. You are all in our prayers.

Dear Maureen, please know that you are in our thoughts as we mourn Ed’s passing. We hope that the wonderful memories you two made together be of comfort to you now and always! May he Rest In Peace knowing he was loved.
Thinking of you!
