Condolences to Eddies family, I just found out about this from a friend at the clipper reunion. We grew up together and spent many hours playing and hanging around East Boston back in the 60's. I hadn't seen him in several years. Eddie was always a kind and gentle soul. I will miss him always. RIP Eddie

To Eddie's family: I just learned of his passing from Ciro Giordano and
I would like to extend my belated condolences to you. Eddie and I were good friends in the 60's hanging out together at Bootsie's on Putnam St and started school at Lowell Tech together. All who knew him realized what a sweet and genuine person he was. My sisters and Mother send their respects knowing he was one of the finest friends they had met. Eddie will always remain in my thought.
