Marrissa,

Please accept my condolences for the loss of your father.

He always would talk about you very lovingly and boast of your accomplishments. He was very very proud of his daughter and would tell anyone who listened.

I 've known your dad along time. He was someone, who when he saw you his smile lit up the room and made you feel special.

Hopefully, you will be blessed with as many friends as he had. Many people were touched by his life and they showed up to say good bye to your dad.

Eddie, I know you doing the SNAKE dance up there with Marie COle.

Sincerely,
Kathy Mooney

I am deeply sorry for the loss of Eddie "Snake". He was someone I considered a good friend, and an uncle of sorts in ways. The news of his loss saddened me deeply, and I would like to express my deepest sympaty and condolenses to all whose lives were touched by him.

A FRIEND FROM ABOVE....

I prayed for you before we met,
Not knowing who you'd be.
I asked the Lord to send a friend.
One chosen just for me.

I asked that they'd be Godly,
With wisdom of His ways.
A friend to help and guide me
I the troubles of these days.

So often in life, we need someone
To listen while we talk.
Someone who will not condemn or judge,
But encourage us as we walk.

The narrow road we choose to follow
May sometimes make us stumble.
But to have a friend to catch our fall,
Teaches us to be humble.

When I asked the Lord to send a friend,
Though many came and went.
He gave much more than I ever asked,
For you are the friend He sent.

Dear McKinney Family, Eddie will be missed by all of us. I will miss his friendship from all our years growing up and playing basketball at the Dixon House and even after that. I will keep all of you in my prayers.
