Edward Major

February 4, 1959 - July 16, 2021

Edward Major, 62 of Eltingville, passed away suddenly on Friday, July 16, 2021, at Staten Island University Hospital North after complications of a recent surgery. Born Wednesday, February 4, 1959 in Brooklyn, New York, he was the son of the late Thomas and Mary Major. He was the beloved husband of Camille Major nee McNerney. They were married for 30 years and raised their two children Gregory and Theresa. Edward was the Vice President of Alba Wheels Up International, where he worked as a custom house broker. He had clients of over 30 years and he was well loved and respected by them. He will always be remembered for his infectious sense of humor. Ed could brighten anyone's day with his jokes and loving personality. In his earlier years, Edward could always be found on the golf course for his weekly round. He was an avid NY Mets and Rangers fan. He loved watching them play and going to games with his family and friends. Music was another favorite pastime. He could always be found singing along with his favorite Beatles song. And most recently, Ed's newest hobby was becoming a cheese connoisseur. He loved learning and tasting new cheese. A fond memory he got Camille interested in recently and had them sharing nights of laughs and cheese together. His family was the most important thing to him. He loved taking family trips with them. His most memorable trips included cruises and Disney World. He is survived by his wife Camille, his children Gregory and Theresa, his brother Thomas and his wife Alice, his brother and sister in laws Judy Major, Marie & Donald Freibergs, Frank & Heidi McNerney and his nieces and nephews Thomas, Laura, Christopher, Matthew, Daniel, Meredith, Margaret, Andrew, Ryan and Christina. Ed was also predeceased by his brother James and his mother and father in law William and Theresa McNerney. A Mass of Christian Burial will be at 10:00 AM on Thursday at Holy Child Church located at 4747 Amboy Road Staten Island, New York 10312. Interment will be in Moravian Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM on Tuesday, and 2:00 -5:00 PM and 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM on Wednesday, at John Vincent Scalia Home for Funerals, Inc., 28 Eltingville Blvd, Staten Island, New York.

However, our staff who have serviced over 350 covid funeral services safely will wear masks to protect those who have not been vaccinated or those who feel uncertain and our own families. We feel this is necessary because we have handled 8 covid deaths in the month of May and more as of this writing of June 21st. Due to the current pandemic circumstances please note: We ask that you please send bakery products, fruit baskets, and other personal items to the families home directly. Floral Arrangements can be purchased from our in-house floral designers by calling 718-948-2016 to place your order or to request a catalog of selections that can be emailed to you.
