Edward Alemian, III will be remembered as a giant among other men. His family, friends and work buddies were his passion; they made his life complete. Proud of his Armenian roots, Edward was born in Weymouth, Massachusetts on June 5, 1958, the grandson of Armenian genocide survivors of 1915. Edward passed on September 24, 2025, with his wife and three daughters by his side.

A loving, faithful husband, Eddie/Eddy/Ed was an adored brother and much loved son as well as the truest kind of friend to those who were fortunate enough to know him. To his mother (Alice Alemian-McMasters), siblings (Dennis/Rhonda Alemian and Lynda/Herb Duplissea), he was loyal, supportive, and always present. Known for his tenacity, he never shied away from a challenge.

In 1967, when his father (Edward Jr) suddenly passed, Ed felt the weight of being referred to as 'the man of the family.' Upon his graduation in 1976 from Weymouth North and the carpentry program of its Vocational-Technical School, he was trained as a welder for General Dynamics Shipyard in Quincy, worked for his Uncle Stephen at Weymouth Chevron, and took on assorted jobs until eventually joining the Iron Workers [Local 7] where he left his mark on many of the high-rise structures throughout Boston, Cambridge, and Foxborough's stadium.

In December of 2000, Ed married the love of his life, Ellen (Simpson). Together, they created a true home for their blended family: Daniel (Anna) , Jodi , John (Paige), Robert, AJ, Nicole Alemian, Alis Alemian-Kingman (Ty), his birthday partner/ sweetheart Anoush Alemian (fiancé Matt Gauvin) as well as Scott Malloy, the son for whom Eddy hoped. Ed doted upon his many grandchildren: Dominick, Brayden, Gabriel, Daniel Jr, Anthony, Austin, Anilyss, Elizabeth Malloy, Jd (named after his uncle) and two soon to be granddaughters (October babies Alyss and Madeleine) as well as many nieces and nephews, each of whom he also adored.

His Iron Worker family and 'work wife' Shawn Lucier [who Ellen claimed spent more time with Eddy over 20 years than she] remember his natural inclination to advise them on the job as well as in life matters, leaving a lasting impact.

Ed is also fondly remembered by his extended family of aunts Jeanette Alemian, Susan Alemian-Bentley, and Claire Alemian, uncles Alan and Stephen [Sharon] Alemian), as well as several generations of cousins.

He was predeceased by a son (JD), his grandparents [Edward Sarkis and Starrie Alemian, Harry Marderosian and Lillian (Shenian) Ballard], aunt Sylvia (Alemian) Pope, uncle Commander Haig Alemian USN, and a special 'uncle/aunt' Dr. Arsham Alemian (Ethel).

Guided by a deep rooted love for God and quiet strength, Ed had a remarkable gift for connecting with people of all ages. He was a mentor to the lost and gracious to those who struggled with life. Whether engaging with a child or an elder, he brought warmth, sincerity, and attentiveness to every interaction.

In his final months, he focused on comforting others and reminding them of the importance of family ties. He would say, "I love you more than life itself," to his daughters and illustrated that even during his most difficult days battling the cancer that would eventually take him as he walked Alis down the aisle with great pride never voicing a complaint but instead being the loving supportive Dad.

His strength, resilience, and generous spirit were hallmarks of his character. He is gone to soon, but forever in our hearts.

At his request there will be no visitation nor service. Donations to Big Brother/ Big Sister or charity of one's choice in his memory in lieu of flowers would be appreciated.
