Eddie this message maybe be a lil late, however I know your in a better place watching over all of us who are awaiting the day we see you again at least I am bro. I found out a few days after when I finally said im going to the house. To my surprise, shock, and disbelief as to the house being vacant my heart stopped as I stared in denial. I went straight to moms aka Jakie I love you and am here for you I had the opportunity to talk to yalls son. He told me and I'm very proud of how much of a man he was as no bs I cried because as all have mentioned you made an impression and always stood tall helped people out, as well as taught valuable lessons ;) well we both did he he!!! Bro I know your in a better place and you needed a break from all the daily stress. I ran across the only pic we took back when we sold t shirts just make ends meet and I met your sister Vanessa hope all is well by the way and you told me dont even think about it!!! Ha well how time flies bro we had some fun times with the family and friends. I wish I wouldve took all the great advice you offered as much as I wished you wouldve took mine and your other loved one's. But its cool as mentioned we will all meet again in a better place I hope soon bro you know you were my true and real friend!!! I love you bro and miss you very much. As for the family ma im still here for you guys and the rest of the family Id love to here from the ones who knew me and the ones I never had the opportunity to meet. Eddie taught me alot about life and would like to help out those people as he did myself feel free to call at any time Jesse "Guero" James (210) 393-7916 I would say rip but I know u bro always moving, helping, and watching out for the less fortunate. Thank you for the love and lessons. See you soon bro!!!!

How do you prepare yourself to say goodbye to someone who wasn't sick, who still had so much life in him and so much to live for? You left this world so suddenly, without warning. Tonight, we will be forced to say goodbye because youre never coming back. you will never pull up my driveway and honk your horn uncontrollably, til i come out and u will never trick me with ur annoying voicemail when i call your cell phone again. Although, i did call it the day you died....just to hear ur voice one more time. I've been a mess all morning trying to hide the tears from my kids. Eddie, you were the best cousin ever, always overprotective of us girls. I will miss that big handsome smile and that crazy laugh of yours. RIP Eddie Leal

To our nephew Eddie Jr. We cannot imagine that you are gone. We are so heart broken... I remember when you would spend the night and we would go to see your Uncle Benny play baseball. You & your cousin Benny Jr. would run after the foul balls. Even though we moved to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma your dad would call you to come to grama Josie house to visit with us. You always had a beautiful smile. We will miss you so very much. Rest in Peace. Our sympathies to your wife and your children. Be strong in your faith because life is sometime very short.

June 12, 2013

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

June 12, 2013

Eddie, I still can't believe you are gone! I remember the nights we use to talk about life at the corner light. I always told you, you were the best father in the world. Your babies were the world to you. I will always be there for them, just like you were there for me & Rich. Now, you are resting son, no more pain, no more sadness. McNarney St. will never be the same!! You were always ready to give someone a helping hand. So many people are going to miss you. I pray that GOD gives your babies and Christina the strength to get through this terrible lost. I'm going to miss you munster, but one day we will meet again at the corner light.
Your friend,
