Edwin Harrison Stone, a Baltimore native and respected attorney who practiced in Baltimore County for 50 years and was a familiar face on the Chesapeake Bay, died Dec. 4 at his home in Vero Beach, Florida. He was 91.
Born in the Summer of 1934, at University Memorial Hospital in Baltimore, Harrison — as everyone called him — was the only child of Jesse and Evelyn Harrison Stone. He attended McDonogh School graduating in 1952. He went on to Washington and Lee University graduating in 1956. Harrison served as Lieutenant Commander in the United States Navy before earning his law degree from the University of Virginia in 1962.
Harrison began his career as an assistant States attorney in Baltimore County before becoming a partner in the firm of Royston, Mueller, McLean & Reid, where he practiced law until his retirement. He met and later married the love of his life, Barbara Chance of Philadelphia, in the Spring of 1965 settling down in Towson, MD.
On weekends he could usually be found sailing. A past commodore of the Gibson Island Yacht Squadron, he spent his free time enjoying the Ravens and Orioles and playing music. Harrison loved Jazz music playing clarinet and saxophone.
Harrison is survived by his wife of 60 years, Barbara Chance Stone; two sons, Edwin Harrison Stone Jr. and Thomas Martyn Stone; and 5 grandchildren. A service will be held at a later date at Wytheville Baptist Church in Wytheville, Virginia, with burial to follow at East End Cemetery.
