<div itemprop="description">Ed Laverty, a man who loved sports and people. The Godfather of Touch Football who pioneered the Ottawa Nepean Touch Football League to it’s 50th year with tireless commitment and passion, a community builder; an exceptional athlete and quarterback and a 2014 Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame inductee. A special man who brought people together who formed friendships that have lasted for decades. He would give you the shirt off his back, lend you a helping hand and extend an open door to whoever needed it. He was a great friend, a loving husband to Trudy and a father who was forever dedicated to his kids Tammy & Gordie. He battled Alzheimer's in his last few years but never lost that twinkle in his eyes or love for life. He was surrounded at home by his family and close friends where he felt safe, loved and comfortable. He was loved beyond measure. <br> <br>Ed left a legacy and imprint on our hearts that will continue to shape many lives forever.</div>
