Edward Orlee Petry, 90, of Westminster, passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 29, 2022, at his home, surrounded by his loving family.
Born January 3, 1932, in Carroll County, he was the son of David Oscar, Sr., and Mabel A. (Robertson) Petry. He was the cherished husband of Ann Linda Petry, whom he married August 29, 1987; and the former husband of the late Anita Petry.
Edward was a retired Sgt. Major of the United States Army. He dedicated 31 years of service to our country and was in both the Korean and Vietnam War. He spoke multiple languages, was a radio operator while in Korea, and loved jumping out of planes. He was wounded in the Korean War and received the purple heart among other numerous decorations and merits.
Edward was a people person and loved to make others laugh. After his military career he continued working at various companies including Yingling General Tire, Eagle Oil, budget analyst for the Maryland Military, and security at Random House.
He loved to travel with his wife and especially enjoyed going to the Inlet in Ocean City- sitting on the boardwalk and visiting National Parks across the United States "gawking" at wild animals.
He was a member of the Westminster Fire Company, Westminster Kiwanis Club, American Legion Carroll Post #31, and a parishioner of St. John Catholic Church.

In addition to his parents and former wife he was predeceased daughter Kathleen Mathias; and brothers Sterling, Junior, Donald, Bobby, and half-brother Jeff.
