So saddened to hear of Edwards passing. I have fond memories of him and Kathy when we all lived in Hideaway Village. One memory was hurricane Bob in 1991, it is fresh in my mind like it were yesterday it happened. May you all take comfort in knowing that Eddie is at peace and may memories of him sustain you during the difficult days ahead.
Sincerely:
The Tellier Family
