Ed was born on February 29, 1956 in LaGrange, GA to Edward Lee Partain, Sr. and Barbara June Partain. He was well known throughout the community as the owner of Partain Marketing. Ed had a wonderful outgoing personality, never meeting a stranger. He was a member of the Kiwanis Club of Columbus and Edgewood Baptist Church. Being outdoors was one of Ed’s favorite places to be.

He has undoubtedly left a legacy for them to follow and will forever hold a special place in the hearts of all whose lives he touched.
