He was born on June 1, 1944, the son of Eugene and Dora (pool) Mullikin. Ed was a graduate of Herscher High School. He worked at Ropers in Kankakee for 22 years, and then at Ryerson Steel in Chicago for 27 years. Ed loved music and learned how to play both the piano and organ at a young age. He enjoyed living in Oak Lawn, in more recent years, so that he could be close to Chicago theaters and restaurants.

He is preceded in death by his parents and sister, Nancy Robbins. Cremation rites have been accorded.
