Beloved father, friend and sports fan Edward James Naszradi, 91, of Novi passed away on November 17, 2024 after a brief stay at Henry Ford Hospital in West Bloomfield. The son of John and Elizabeth (Beres) Naszradi, he was born on June 3, 1933 in Detroit and lived his early years in Hungarian Delray.
