Sadly and suddenly passed away peacefully at his home on Sunday, June 8, 2025 at the age of 75. Ed was predeceased by his loving wife Candice (Learn) Kellogg (2023). He is survived by his children; Heather Kellogg, John Kellogg, and David Kellogg, his step-children; Christopher Horsup, Carlee Phair, Tanya (Jeremy) McFadden, Trisha (Matt) Tran, Angela Mills, Tamara (Brent) Mills, Clarence (Lucas) MacDonald, Thomas (Becca) MacDonald, and Alisha (Zane) MacDonald. Fondly remembered by his siblings; Lucy (Roy) Graves, Jacque (Len) Alton, Russel (Kaye) Kellogg, Brenda (Wayne) Jennings and his nephew; Ronald (Leslie) Learn, and his niece; Lisa (Dan) Barnett. Ed is survived by several grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and the extended Kellogg and Learn families. Predeceased by his parents Lloyd and Mary (Flack) Kellogg, sister Gloria (Robert Learn) Hutton, and his brother-in-law Donald Learn.
Ed proudly served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 20 years as a skilled mechanic. His passion for fixing things extended well beyond his time in uniform—he loved working on vehicles, always eager to get under the hood and solve a problem. In his downtime, Ed enjoyed relaxing at home, often found at his computer, reading a good book, or playing a game of cards. Whether he was tinkering around the house or unwinding with a favourite pastime, Ed brought patience, curiosity, and quiet joy to the everyday moments of life.
A celebration of Ed’s life will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 456 Main Street, Exeter on Sunday, June 15th from 2 – 4 PM. Cremation to follow with a private graveside at Forest Lawn Cemetery, London at a later date.
Donations to Heart & Stroke Foundation or Canadian Cancer Society in Ed’s memory would be appreciated by the family.
