“Eddie was definitely a loveable and happy person. he brought smiles to many faces with his goofy outfits that he would randomly wear. He was definitely the life of the party and had a voice that sounded like angels. Him and I had just shared a good laugh and exchanged fishing stories Friday. My heart broke when I heard and I know I will definitely miss your smile and hearing your laugh. Fly high Eddie and now you can sing with angels. Amber M”
