his brother has the same name: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VG2M-KXS
I just know that on her obit people are leaving messages and it seems like they are refering to her husband as Ed.
There’s an Edward Lazzari married to Faith Leona Larsen in Nevada in ’69:

Edward J. “Ed” Lazzari and Faith L. are definitely Chad’s parents. I can’t explain “Larson” surname. Birth certificates of Chad and his siblings list their mother’s surname as “Wright”.
“Larson” was the surname of Faith Leona Wright’s first husband
