Hello, my name Ed Wilton and I'm creating this account to honor my son, Edward W. Wilton, III, 22, of North Florida, killed in Luhansk Oblast, Ukraine on April 7, 2023, while fighting with the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine in Ukraine's conflict with Russia. Of Ukrainian/Rusyn ancestry, Edward left the United States to defend his heritage. He fought with honor and courage and brought enormous pride to all of his family.

Anyone who would like to honor this hero is encouraged to do so. Funds collected will be used only for the preservation of Edward's story and legacy. Thank you.
