Mr. Eby was my choir teacher at Dennis Jr. High and Richmond Sr. High school. It was an honor to be one of his many students that truly loved him.

Mr. Eby was my piano teacher, choir and band director at Celina High School. I cherish the music training that he gave me. He will always be the "Music Man" in my memories. Sincerest condolences to his family.

Mr. Eby was my choir teacher in 1976 and 1977. To this day I remember the way he would turn toward the door while he was standing at the piano, smile, and say hello when I walked into the room. He was always patient with us and I believe he truly cared about each and every one of us. Mr. Eby was a kind, gentle man. I am better for having known him and he will be missed. We love you Mr. Eby. Rest in peace.

To Lois and the rest of the family members We are sorry to hear about Edwin's death and glad to see what he had been doing in his life. Old school friends. Chloe and Wilma Walls
