Edwin was the longtime owner of Latham’s Man’s Shop, a mens specialty clothing store in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma until 1996. He loved great meals, meeting and talking with people new to him, gambling and travel, especially to Mexico so he could better learn the Spanish language. In years past, Edwin also enjoyed bike riding and local sports. Edwin was a giving man, a tradition he continued even upon his death. You see, Edwin chose to donate his body to science in an effort to help advance medical treatments, cures, and medical innovation for his fellow man.
