In response to a PM:
From my files about my phone conversation with Barton Yarick:
[ I talked to Bart Mar 21, 1992 a Saturday from about 2:55 to 3:00. He
has just moved into the house his mother owned before she died.
Some years ago she sold about $4,000 worth of magazines and other
materials to John Grimek... she basically gave up lifting in the
mid 1960s and would instead walk for exercise- usually with her
dogs along the canal banks in Modesto, Ca. She and Ed would also
jog; Ed continued to lift until late in his life and rode a sta-
tionary bike and a BMW into his 70s ]
So far as I know, no muscle mag contained any detailed mention of Ed's passing, which was in November 1988 (born June 11, 1910). Wife Alyce died December 4, 1991 (born April 18, 1916). Bart was born February 1, 1954.
I have not followed up on that phone call.
There are some natural bodybuilding mags that may have in recent years published an article about Ed (I just don't know). I have no cause of death for Ed, but at age 78, he had a long life. So if anyone is aware of an article published about Ed after his passing, please share that info.
There are some threads about Ed and Alyce on my forum.
