I was saddened and shocked at the untimely passing of Eddie. Our time at The Apprentice School overlapped a period of thirty years. He was a consummate craft instructor who, like all craft instructors, took young men and women with little to no experience in shipbuilding and developed outstanding craftsmanship and leadership that aided them in their careers. I will remember him as a stalwart member of the graduation team (set-up and take-down crew) that made every graduation a first-class...

To the family of Eddie, I am deeply sadden to hear of Eddie's passing. He was one of the first mechanics I worked with when I came into the apprentice school. He was a very caring person and was always willing to help and lend a hand. God grant you comfort and peace as you move forward into your tomorrows.
