Ed Fassel knew he was gay from the time he sat on his father’s lap
at the age of three, experiencing what he describes as his first
rejection. From childhood pranks on the beaches of Delaware to his
exotic South Sea journey, Ed’s life has been remarkable. He
consistently hid the truth from his family, yet he was unable to ever

accomplished.
