I was shocked to hear that my favorite uncle had passed on. My step father was Pete and while my parents were still together we spent alot of time at Uncle Eddie's home on the westend. He used to throw me up into the air trying to make me either giggle or wet my pants!! He used to also defend me whenever cousin Stacy would pick on me!! Because of my intense fascination with Uncle Eddie, I became a truck driver. When I told him years ago I was going to be just like him he laughed and patted my head.
I guess he was right....Uncle Eddie is an original man and always will be....Uncle Eddie you will always be remember fondly!!!

The first time I met grandpa Eddie the thing that got my attention was his amazing smile and soon after that, his laugh. I enjoyed all of the time I got to spend with him. He was a truly amazing man. Grandpa, your little Buddy is doing great. We all love and miss you!

Dear relatives,

The offering of mass here this afternoon for Eddie. My memories take me back to being a little girl, when big equipment was bigger than life, along with the men that operated them:)
A mighty man...a mighty Myshak!
May your soul rest in peace,cousin. Loving thoughts to embrace and comfort the family from across the miles.

As soon as we met Eddie, we saw a man with a big heart; someone that would give you the shirt off his back. Its sad to see a man like this leave this world. He was always a pleasure to talk with, share a beer and a smoke, and solve all the problems in the world. We're going to miss you.

So sad to see a wonderful man leave this world after giving people so much just with his smile. You didnt even have to be family to call him Grandpa he was Grandpa Ed to everyone. We all have been blessed with our extended families because of him weather it is Kath, Joe, Grandma or any of the Myshak family they all wear the same traits proud. Thanks for blessing this world with your kindness and all your presents of just being who you are. All your pain is gone so time for you to take time for you. You pull those wrenches in heaven and do what you do and we will all meet again. you are greatly missed. XXXXOOOO

We will miss you as our memories have always been great, giving Eddie the gears about doing things wrong is such a funny memory. I am sure you have your shop of your dreams now. All your pain is gone and no worries here as everything will be done right. We thank you for the blessing of giving us the extended family we have because of you. You will be greatly missed our frien, Grandpa and dad what ever anyone called you, you accepted anyone more than just a friend. XXXXOOOO

Grandpa Eddie was a good man who will be greatly missed by his family and friends, for as long as I can remember he worked on his equipment and it just wasn't a hug from grandpa unless you could smell the diesel and where checking your clothes for greasy oil prints after. Grandpa was always willing to take his granddaughters for that fun little ride on a buggy and to teach his grandsons how to run the equipment or to just lend a hand to a grand baby in need. The world lost a hardworking man who will forever be missed. Love you Grandpa Eddie xoxo

Our prayers are with the family during this time. It is obvious that "Grandpa" was much loved. And yes we share the vision of him pulling wrenches in heaven. I am sure God has the shop of Grandpa's dreams there. With much blessings to you. The Canning Family (Katie's parents and family)
