Mr Edward Henry Borman

Edward Henry Borman Edward Henry Borman Jr., a WWII Navy veteran, was born September 26, 1926, and died Sept 4, 2016, in the comfort of his own home in Orange Beach, Alabama. He leaves his wife of 66 years, Janet Ames Borman; his daughter, Anne Borman (Joel Nadler); his son, Keith Borman (Jennifer); his daughter Beth Menah (Michael); his son Michael’s wife, Melinda Borman; and all his wonderful grandchildren: Cy Nadler(Kate); Amanda, Zac, and Max Borman; Angela and Julie Menah; and Jackson and Olivia Borman. He was preceded in death by his parents Edward Henry Borman Sr and Lillian (Nordmann) Borman; his sisters Bernice Mueller (Oscar) and Eunice Borman; and his youngest son, Michael Edward Borman. Edward graduated from Webster Groves High School in 1944, then joined the Navy and became a radio operator on the USS Carp submarine, in WWII. On November 19, 1949, Edward married Janet Stephens Ames. Just a few months later, in 1950, he graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri with a BS in business administration. In 1965, while Janet and Edward were raising their 4 children, Edward received his Juris Doctor from St. Louis University and became a member of the Missouri Bar Association. The 60s proved to be a busy time for Edward: Raising his children, law school, and the initiation of the Medicare program throughout the state of Missouri. Edward traveled from West Plains to Kirksville, trying to convince physicians about the importance of enrolling their patients in the Medicare program. In the 1970s, Edward Borman became the Director of the Missouri Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons. During his leadership, he was able to secure hospital admitting privileges for the Osteopathic physicians statewide, a huge step forward for this medical profession. In 1982, Edward retired to Orange Beach, Alabama, to enjoy the Gulf Coast. In his spare time, he was instrumental in building a new Orange Beach city hall; became a councilman for the city; sailed upon the blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico; and retrained himself as an amateur (HAM) radio operator (KA0TNR) using the Morse code he had learned in the Navy. Ed and Jan also enjoyed traveling all over the world. I do believe his favorite pastime though was reading, which he was able to enjoy up until the last month of his life.
