Edward W. Strother, of Greenville, South Carolina passed December 11, 2015, in his 60th year.
Edward was born in Scotland County, NC to the late Ralph Lee Strother and Emma Lois Autry. He was a graduate of Hoke High School and the University of South Carolina, enjoyed USC and UNC sports, especially basketball. He was an accomplished financial planner with Edward Jones Investments and a dedicated member of Brookwood Community Church where he was active in local mission ministry. His life was devoted to his family, friends, church, and clients. A loving and devoted father and husband, beloved by all those who knew him well, and cared for by his church, family, and friends. The greatest daddy a girl could ever hope to have and one of the best men any fortunate person could ever encounter, much less get to know and enjoy in their lives. He was always quick with a witty remark, and went out with the God-given, amazing smirk, with which he was graced.
Surviving are Alison and Jean Strother, currently residing in Royal Palm Beach, FL; sister, Catherine Brock (Jessie) and brother, Dennis Strother (Cindy) of Raeford, NC.
Memorial service Thursday, December 17, 2015, at 2:00 pm in the Chapel of Brookwood Community Church, Simpsonville, SC. The family will greet friends immediately following the service. Committal service Saturday, December 19, 2015, at 2:00 pm in Ashley Heights Baptist Church Cemetery.
