My two earliest joys in life were whistling and riding my bike. Grandpa Ed taught me to whistle and Uncle Ed bought me my first shinny red bike. These are the gifts of a life time.

I was blessed to have such a wonderful
Uncle. Uncle Eddie was always calm, cool and kind. He had the greatest smile and he will be deeply missed.
God bless him and his family in this time of sorrow.
