TO THE FAMILY OF JOE EDDIE. I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR OF JOE'S PASSING. WHEN I FINALLY GOT THE WORD, THE FUNERAL WAS OVER. JOE WAS ONE OF THE NICEST PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET. HE WAS NEVER TOO BUSY TO STOP AND SAY HELLO AND TALK FOR A FEW MINUTES. I DIDN'T GET TO SEE THE BAND VERY OFTEN BUT WHEN I DID, I ALWAYS LOOKED FOR JOE EDDIE. HE MIGHT BE IN THE MIDDLE OF A SONG BUT HE ALWAYS NODDED HIS HEAD OR RAISED A HAND IN GREETING. HE MAY NOT HAVE KNOWN MY NAME BUT HE ALWAYS KNEW MY FACE. THINGS...

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

Joe Eddie
A great giant of a man with a caring, caring heart
He made a big impression on me right from the very start
The very first time we met Joe Eddie, it was right there & then we knew
He was one in a million, one of a very, very few
Of life’s true, true gentlemen & it was a privilege for us to know
