Sperry

Ed Truman Sperry, loving and devoted son, brother, uncle and friend, was born on July 2, 1938, in Ardmore, Oklahoma, to Clarence E. 'Buck' and June Sperry. He passed away at the age of 80 on September 11, 2018 in Norman, OK.

Ed graduated from Ardmore High School in 1957 and remained in the Ardmore area until joining his family in Blanchard in 1964.

Ed was a unique person, with an unparalleled love of all sports. His passion was especially intense for his beloved Sooners, Blanchard Lions and Ardmore Tigers. He also had a special fondness for the Dallas Cowboys, Texas Rangers and the OKC Thunder. Those that knew him were constantly amazed at his ability to recall the most obscure trivia and facts about sporting events and teams, whether it be scores, dates, names of players or even the weather conditions at the games. Ed truly and completely loved his sports.

Ed was an outgoing person, having never met a stranger. He loved spending time visiting and dining with his family and friends and sitting on his patio enjoying the weather.

Ed was preceded in death by his parents, Buck and June Sperry; a brother, Bobby Joe Sperry; his grandparents, Cat and Maggie Damron and C. E. and Ermin Sperry.

He is survived by his stepmother, Ellen Sperry of Moore, Oklahoma; one sister, Susie Steen and husband Danny of Blanchard, Oklahoma; his niece, Lacey Ward and husband Zac, of Tuttle, Oklahoma; sister-in-law, Ann Sperry of Broomfield, Colorado; step-sisters, Judy Pisarik and husband Mike and their son Michael and family of Plano, Texas, Karen Sontag and husband Neil of Lighthouse Point, Florida, Sharon Drake and husband Stan of Moore, Oklahoma and their sons Shane, Shelby and Stuart and families; uncles, cousins and a host of friends.
