He is found dead outside of the Vault door.
Ed is possibly the first person sent outside the [[Vault]] before the [[water chip]] broke. Considering he never made it very far (about 2 and a half steps from the vault door), he was probably killed by the [[Rat (Fallout)|mutant rat]]s that inhabit the cave outside of the vault.
 
 
Along with [[Talius]], the [[Vault Dweller]], and possibly the charred vault dwellers in the [[West Tek Research Facility|Glow]], Ed is the only other person to have been sent out by the [[Overseer]] of [[Vault 13]] to look for a [[water chip]].
