“The Civil War is the crux of our history.  You cannot understand any part of our past, from the convening of the Constitutional Convention, down to this morning, without eventually arriving at the Civil War.” - Bernard de Voto

 

In Memoriam

Colonel Edward H. Hahn, U.S. Army Retired

 Our own Round Table member; board director; and good friend Ed Hahn passed away Wednesday, July 30th at 4:15 p.m. 

Viewing will be on Friday, August 1st, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Freyvogel's Funeral Home on Centre Avenue in Shadyside (Pittsburgh).  A Mass of Christian Burial will be on Saturday, August 2nd, at 11:00 a.m. at St. John Fisher Roman Catholic Church, 33 Lewin Lane, Pittsburgh, PA 15235 (Churchill Boro)

Ed had been a member of our Round Table since its beginnings and had been serving on our Board of Directors.  A true Civil War enthusiast, Ed was active not only in our group, but in other Round Tables as well.  With his extensive knowledge of the Civil War Era, Ed was constantly being sought out as a speaker to share his passion with others. 

We could always count on seeing Ed at our weekend clean-up trips to the "155th PA Monument" on Little Round Top on the Gettysburg Battlefield, and on our many Civil War tours.

Colonel Edward H. Hahn was a "real gem" of a human being who had a "heart of gold"!

Ed will be greatly missed by us all!  Huzzah, Ed!!

 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

     "The Greater Pittsburgh Civil War Round Table was founded in February 2000,

 in the North Hills of Pittsburgh , Pennsylvania , for the purpose of providing Civil

 War enthusiasts, and anyone with an interest in The War Between The States,

 with the opportunity to meet regularly.  We meet to study, discuss and learn about

 the war that shaped our nation, and to honor the men and women of the Civil

 War Era, and the sacrifices they made.

     It is, furthermore, the mission of this Round Table to educate the public about

 the urgent need for the preservation of battlefields, monuments, and Civil War

 sites."
