Edmond Bartley

Ed was born on February 18, 1956, in Pawnee, Oklahoma, the son of Jesse Eugene and Alma Kay (Kinney) Bartley. Ed grew up and attended school in Cleveland, where he graduated with the Class of 1974. During his time in high school, he was actively involved with the FFA show cattle program. Following high school, Ed began working at Drum Services and later at C.E. Natco, until the facility's closure in 1984. Ed then gained employment at Word Industries' Cleveland facility and worked there until the early 1990s. Ed then worked independently for Kenny Thurman, helping with cattle and pumping wells.

Ed always enjoyed being outdoors and tinkering with anything mechanical. Colorado was always a place he enjoyed visiting and frequently talked about.
