Eddie,
I did not know you well, but I do know that Jodi and Joy spoke the world of you. I find peace in knowing that you are in Heaven with Joy and Jodi- I know that you would not have wanted it any other way. Please take care of my girls...
You will be missed.

Eddie, I remember you from our family reunions at my Dad's home (Willie Wheeler)in those long ago years. Every time we passed by your parents' house we would say that's Waddie's house. Cecil and Carl our hearts go out to you and your families. We were cousins, even though third or fourth, still kin. May the Lord help your through and may you lean on Him.

"Think about
When we laughed
When we played
When we comforted
When you were proudest of me.
Remember me like that."

"ZEKE" will be missed. Eddie, as I called him, was a big part of my life in the 80's. I knew him and Joy well. They have been out of my life for a few years, but I never forgot him. Please accept my prayers for all the family in this time of great sorrow.
