Edward was born Friday, June 14, 1929, in Anderson to Leo and Alice Cone Pasket. A lifelong resident of Anderson, Edward was a retired cotton harvester and farmer. It was on November 28, 1953 at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church that he married Doris Jean Ubernoski. Edward farmed cotton for a number of years and later became a well-known cotton harvester in the Brazos Valley and the Rio Grande Valley. Over the years, he continued to improve his harvesting with all the new developments in the industry.
Edward was lifelong member of St. Stanislaus Catholic Church as well as a charter member of the Knights of Columbus Council 4054 in Anderson. He had a passion for working—but in his spare time he enjoyed collecting antique cars and was a former member of the Cadillac Club. Edward’s greatest love was his wife Doris, and his family.
Survivors include his wife of 65 years, Doris Pasket of Anderson; two daughters, Cecelia Marquart and husband Bill of Huntsville, TX and Ann Dandridge and husband Bill of Dallas; two sons, Anthony Pasket and wife Laura and Darryl Pasket and wife Shelly, both of Anderson; a brother, Typhil Pasket and wife Cecilia of Anderson; a sister, Cornelia Blair and husband Owen of Spring; four grandchildren, John Marquart and wife Ashley, Jessica Aultz and husband Adam, Kaitlyn Pasket and Adriana McClellan and husband Jacob.
The family extends a special thank you for the loving care for the past three years to Edward, Dorothy Sauls, JoAnn Williams, Shirley Lofton, Joyce Stevenson, Pearline Jones, Jackie Marcelle and Shala Clayton.
The family has requested memorials in Edward’s name to St. Stanislaus Catholic Church Building Fund, PO Box 210, Anderson, TX 77830-0210 or a favorite charity.
