Aunt Barbara and Family, I am so sorry to hear about Uncle Eddie. He was such a great man and person. I know we haven't seen much of each other over the years but you both were always in my thoughts. Bill and I spoke of you both many times with great pleasure. His picture shows how he was, always smiling, kind words were always spoken. I know he will be missed terribly. I pray one day your sad tears will turn to happy tears when you remember him and how funny he could be. Remember him always as loving you. My heart and prayers go out to you. With much love and sorrow, Sandy and Bill Bell
