WESTBOROUGH

Edward F. McManus, 83, of Westborough passed away on Saturday, December 23, 2023, peacefully at home.

Born in Framingham, he was the son of the late Edward and Helen (Gagen) McManus. He was raised and educated in Framingham and attended the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

Edward was a serial entrepreneur and president of several businesses in the transportation and real estate industries.
