So sad to see such a young life taken so early. Eddie always made me smile. Last time I saw him about 6 months ago he did just that. Such a kind heart. So sorry for all of your loss. May he rest easy now in the hands of the Lord.

To everyone in the Gibbons family:
We all grew up together all those many years ago and we laughed and we loved and we learned and yes probably even shared spats and even though life passes by and we go our seperate ways, the memories and the love does not go away but rather stays in a part of our hearts forever! I remember when Eddie was born! And life took him too young. May he rest in peace for all eternity and may his loved ones find comfort.
