PostHeaderIcon Edward H. Conrad of Amherst, MA, May 5, 1932 – July 21, 2015

Amherst, Edward Harvey Conrad, 83, of Amherst died unexpectedly in his sleep on July 21, 2015.  He had a full and rich life.

He was born on May 5, 1932 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Mary and Benjamin Cohen, the youngest of three children.  He graduated from Central High School in Philadelphia and the Wharton School of Business.  He received a PhD in Psychology from New York University.  He had a long working career as a clinical psychologist at Brooklyn State Hospital and as the co-founder and co-director of the Whitman Institute for Counseling and Psychotherapy in Brooklyn, New York. 

He had a lifelong love of music and was deeply passionate about opera.  He sang with the University of Pennsylvania chorus that performed with the Philadelphia Orchestra.  He also sang with the Hampshire Choral Society for several years.  He was also an avid Patriots fan.  He will be sorely missed for his generosity of spirit and wonderful sense of humor.

He is survived by his wife of thirty-six years, Kathy Conrad, his children Rachel Conrad and son-in-law Thomas Rooney of Shutesbury, Abby Smith and son-in-law Mark Smith of Hadley, Elizabeth Conrad of Amherst, and Adam Conrad of Amherst; and his sister Geraldine Schneeberg of Philadelphia and brother Jay Mortimer and sister-in-law Barbara Mortimer of Sherman Oaks, California. He is also survived by five grandchildren: Emma and Sammy Conrad-Rooney; and Jessi, Tori, and Alyssa Smith.  He was predeceased by his son David Conrad.

The family will welcome friends at their home Thursday, July 23rd from 4pm to 7pm and Friday, July 24th from 4 pm to 7 pm. A memorial service will be held at a future date.
