Volunteer of the Month: Ed Ferguson

We’re honored to shine the spotlight on our Volunteer of the Month, Ed Ferguso

Ed Ferguson has led a life of service, starting with his time as a Combat Engineer in the RVN (Republic of Vietnam) from May 28th, 1971, to May 1972. His commitment to serving his country continued as he joined the reserves in 1976, where he became part of the 187th Infantry Brigade at Devens, initially a tank unit. Later, he transitioned to the National Reserves, serving in the 110th Maintenance Company out of Devens. In 2003, Ed was deployed to Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom, stationed at Talli Air Base for a year.

Beyond his military service, Ed’s dedication extends to his community. He is an active participant at Veteran Pathways (formerly Clear Path for Veterans New England), initially introduced by a friend. Engaging with the dog program and later contributing to the culinary department, Ed’s involvement reflects his willingness to contribute in various capacities. His commitment is evident in his regular presence at Veteran Pathways (formerly Clear Path for Veterans New England) events, including the Fitchburg Breakfasts and Leominster Lunches on Tuesdays. Ed’s reliability and readiness to assist, even at short notice, make him an invaluable asset to the Veteran Pathways (formerly Clear Path for Veterans New England) team. The appreciation expressed for Ed’s contributions underscores the impact of his selfless service. Thank you, Ed, for your unwavering dedication to Veteran Pathways (formerly Clear Path for Veterans New England) and for embodying the spirit of service in all that you do.
