Ed Mathena

Ed is from Boston, MA and has three children and eight grandchildren. He served four years in the US Air Force, then went to Suffolk University and obtained his Bachelors degree.

After a 30-year career with Verizon as an Outside Technician, he retired and moved to our On Top of the World Community.

Retirement provided a lot of free time and he began several hobbies. His first and most enjoyable is painting in water colors. As a teenager, Ed remembers drawing and painting cartoon characters from the newspapers and comic books.

Today he enjoys our On Top of the World Art Club where he most enjoys the drawing and painting of children and African wild animals.
