Eddie had a spirit that lighted a room. I knew him briefly through work and always looked forward to talking with him. He was so full of life and enthusiasm and always with a smile. I will miss him.

A piece of all of us has died with you Ed. I watched you grow from a hard working little league ball player, to Catholic Memorial graduate into the vibrant, funny and hard working young man you were. You could always be counted on to be there when needed. So many good memories, so little space to write. Readville, and Hyde Park have lost one of the best. We will miss you Ed, Rest in Peace until we meet again.

I coached Ed on the Lyndon State Men's Lacrosse Team. He epitomizes the term "team player". Always looking for a way to help he volunteered to play goalie when needed. He always stood tall and was responsible for some needed victories. I am deeply saddened by his passing and my heart goes out to his family, friends, and teammates. He made friends so easily. He will live on in thoughts, prayers, and memory. Rest in Peace #15
