My Uncle was a special person because he always made me feel special. There was never a doubt that he loved me. I hope he knew how much I loved him and how much I will miss him.

Uncle Eddie was a bright "light" in my life and reflected the light of Christ. He was a gentle, kind man with a huge heart always eager to share a story and listen to others. The hole he leaves will never be filled.
