Eddie Meeks Obituary

Eddie Meeks of Clovis NM died unexpectedly on Saturday, March 20 2021.
He left behind his wife, Kimberly Meeks and their 4 rescue dogs, Opal, Cooper, Smokey and Lily. Eddie never met a dog he didn't love and every dog loved him right back. (Milk Bones were always found in his pockets). Eddie also leaves behind his Brother and Best Friend, David Meeks; his cherished older sister, Jan (Terry) Hughes and younger sister Carolyn Hardage. Eddie loved his family as much as his rescue dogs and was a wonderful step-father to Jennifer and David McDaniel and their spouses Gabe Pfeiffer and Maly McDaniel. Eddie was also a proud G-Pa to his beloved Harlow and Collin. Harlow named him G-Pa and loved him dearly. He also leaves behind his nephew, Todd and Amanda Green; nephew, Lyle and Amber Cooper; niece, Mandy and Anthony Garcia; nephew, Kyle and Jessica Hardage and niece, Andrea Hardage; many loving cousins; his Aunt Ruby; and his brother-in-law, Greg and Carolyn Nibert.
His life was rounded out by the love of his very tight knit group of friends. They are a brotherhood who stand by each other through thick and thin. Eddie graduated from Texas Tech and worked as a Crop Consultant for the last 45 years. He loved going to Texas Tech sporting events and keeping up with High School Football Games across the State of Texas. His unique sense of style could be seen from his hats down to his shoes. If you have ever seen his closet then you know!!!
Eddie was on a deep spiritual journey and he walked with Jesus daily. He touched everyone's life he met by showing kindness and compassion. He was caring, generous, loving and a Godly Man. If you were lucky enough to know him then you know how special he was. We know Eddie is in a better place, but our hearts ache from this sudden loss.
Preceding him in death were his parents, Lee and Margie Meeks and a brother, Alan Lee Meeks.
In Lieu of Flowers, we ask that donations be made to your favorite Dog Rescue Organizations.
A Celebration of Life will be held Thursday, March 25, 2021, 11:00am (Texas Time) at Farwell Country Club.

John 14: 1-3
Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father's home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am

Eddie was a very caring man. He loved his wife, Kim and his fur babies were his children. He and Kim would take their children on walks every day . Eddie and Kim were our neighbors and we love them. Eddie will be greatly missed and hopefully Kim will let us know when she needs something that we are able to help her with. God bless this family, and so sorry for their loss!
