Obituary

Edward (Tres) Charles Townsend, III, 35, of Summerville, SC passed away Tuesday, January 24, 2023. He was born February 12, 1987 in Annapolis, Maryland to Edward Charles Townsend Jr. and Lissa Lane Townsend. Tres spent most of his life in Maryland before moving to South Carolina in 2015.

Tres is survived by his mother and step-father Lissa and Jerry Hostomsky and his father and step-mother, Edward and Suzie Townsend. He is also survived by several aunts, uncles and cousins with whom he enjoyed celebrating holidays and special occasions. Notably, with his cousin Benjamin Maguire, who was most like a brother to Tres.

Tres attended St. Mary’s High School in Annapolis, Maryland and Severna Park High School graduating in 2005. He then attended Anne Arundel Community College in Arnold, Maryland and later the Golf Academy of America, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina majoring in business administration. His work history in Maryland included route sales for a Red Bull distributor where he achieved number one sales for his region. Prior to leaving for South Carolina, he held an assistant pro job at the Eisenhower Golf Course in Crownsville. He successfully passed the playing ability test during his employment at Eisenhower. Upon moving to South Carolina Tres worked for a pressure washing company prior to starting his own pressure washing business. He grew the business quickly and took pride in his excellent customer relations.

Tres was a high energy person who was always seeking new adventures. He was a low handicap golfer and an accomplished snowboarder who enjoyed the challenges of black diamond runs or flying over high jumps. Tres was very charismatic and always raised the energy level of social events he attended. During relaxed times, he enjoyed helping his family with landscaping and home improvement projects and especially cooking family meals while sharing his culinary skills at every opportunity.

Tres was a caring and compassionate son who will always be in the hearts and memories of his family and friends. A celebration of Tres’ life will be held on February 12, 2023 at the Waterfront Inn Hotel & Restaurant in The Villages, Florida, by invitation only.

Did all of it online. Nicole and her staff were amazing. I just want to say thank you. I live in a different state and they were able to take care of my loved one. This is one of the best and most affordable places.

They were very respectful and polite. We were on a budget, as most people are when a loved one unexpectedly passes away, and they really helped us out with the cheapest prices we had seen and with virtually the same services as the other cremation places.

Did majority of the process online. Sarah and Nicole were both amazing, super knowledgeable, sincere, and extremely helpful. We live approximately two hours from location, and were able to take care of all the details remotely. Money is super tight, coast to coast cremations was reasonably-priced, handled everything with genuine care, and was super quick from the transportation of body to shipping of the remains. I will definitely refer anyone in that area to them. Thank you so much ladies, for ALL OF YOUR HELP.

Nothing can prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When our father passed away recently, my sister and I were left to process our grief while simultaneously working through what has to be done when someone dies. From the minute I first spoke to Kyle at Coast to Coast Cremations, I knew I was talking to someone who could help us navigate this process with patience, understanding and empathy. I cannot speak highly enough of Kyle; his knowledge and compassion made this difficult time so much easier. He was available any time we needed him, to answer any questions we had. We will always be grateful to him.

I was so lost hearing that my Twin Sister had passed away so suddenly, I had called Coast to Coast cremation and I was blessed to talk to Kyle Johnson, I really don't know what I would have done without his help. Kyle was so understanding and so caring, he helped me throughout this terrible time in my life and it didn't matter to him how many times I called he was so very caring, he made me feel that he was a close family friend and I will never forget this man for helping me through one of the worse times of my life, I knew that my Sister Gale was going to be well taken care of. Thank you Kyle and God bless you, I feel like you are a Dear Friend.

We had to make a decision that no one wants to. We didn't know all the prearranged details and had to investigate which thought we resolved some days prior. We we didn't anticipate that we would be on the phone for hours calling one number to another, devastating; however everyone was very nice, politful and very helpful. Doing so Coast To Coast was one of the recommendations. We went with then and we were truly satisfied by their gentleness, professionalism, and very helpful in giving us advices. I do plan on using them when my time comes.

Never had I ever had to worry about burying someone. I didn't know where to start. I was exhausted with emotion . I had called other crematories and received very cold, shallow replies and then I called Kyle. Kyle , I just want you to know how much your kind voice and understanding meant to me. We need more of you in this world. Thank you ! I highly recommend !

Kyle has made a difficult situation so much easier. I have never handled these situations before and Kyle guided me through everything. He understands that questions can come up at any time and uses texts and emails to communicate at all hours. He handled everything from working with the medical examiner, notifying Social Security and giving tips to locating life insurance policies. He expertise and knowledge was priceless.

I called around price comparing. Coast to coast crematory is the cheapest around. As soon as I gave them my father's information and location they immediately went and got him and started the paperwork for the process . Kyle was extremely kindhearted and kept me informed about each step. I definitely recommend Coast to Coast crematory ...caring, professional and affordable.

Kyle from Coast to Coast was very sweet and understood our time was short and he was sensitive to our feelings. He was extremely comforting and made this horrible situation better, and had us feeling at ease. Thank you Kyle, and Coast to Coast staff for all of your hard work.

I was so upset when I lost my only son.. Not knowing who to call or what to do.. Upon making my decision to have him cremated, I called Coast to Coast and spoke to a wonderful gentleman named Kyle.. From that first call, he was always there for me, going above and beyond hiis job..Gentle, kind, understanding are only a few words to describe him.. He treated me with the upmost respect and showed such compassion...His kindness to me helped me tremendously and I will be forever grateful.. I would highly reccomend Coast to Coast..
