Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania - Harvey Edwards, 69, of Selinsgrove, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, October 30, 2025, at his residence.

Born on January 18, 1956, in Brooklyn, New York, he was a son to the late Amos and Helen (Sneed) Edwards.

Following high school, Harvey earned his Bachelor's Degree from Bucknell University and his Master's Degree from The Pennsylvania State University. His dedication to learning and personal growth was evident throughout his life and career. He will be remembered with respect and fondness by those who knew him.

He devoted his career to education, teaching English at Selinsgrove Area High School for 28 years before continuing to share his love of literature, language and teaching, as a professor at Susquehanna University. Harvey stood by the quote "If you love your job, you will never have to work a day in your life."

Beyond the classroom, Harvey lived life to the fullest. He was recruited to play basketball at Bucknell University. Harvey was a three-time world champion in Ultimate frisbee, a passionate golfer who played three days a week with his friends at the Bucknell Golf Club, and an enthusiastic traveler who loved exploring the world with his family.

Harvey is survived by his loving wife, Patricia (Gibbons) Edwards; twin sons, Tynan Shaw Edwards (Carrie) and Cassidy Page Edwards (Julie); and grandchildren Nathan Daniel, Lucas Harvey, and Rory Joyce. In addition to his parents, Harvey was preceded in death by one sister, Mattie Blaize.

A celebration of his life will be held in the Spring/Summer of 2026.
