Dear Anne
I cannot put into words how truly sorry I am for your loss. I have such fond memories of Eddie. He was a man's man and to say the least, a favorite because of who he was. He always made everyone feel comfortable around him, never having to say a bad word about anybody. He lived for " you and his children" and that in itself deserves praise. He will be sadly missed. I hope that God will Bless You and take care of you during your road ahead. Of course you know that I will "always" be there for you whenever, even if it means we have to cry together or just talk. He was one of a kind and such a good husband. My sincerest sympathy & condolences to you during this time of grievance. God Bless You Anne and remember I will help you through in any way that I can. Love, Your Sister Joanie

Dear Rhonda,Eddie,Jimmy & Stacey
Auntie cannot express how truly & deeply sorry I am for the loss of your dear faher. Your dad was one of a kind, so simple and caring. He just lived for his family and loved you all so much, never wanting for anything more. He will be missed a lot! He made everyone feel so comfortable and he was loved by everyone who knew him. There is no bond as great as that between a parent and his children and that bond was his strength. May God Bless you All through this trying time. My sincerest sympathy to all.

Anne and Family,
I had the pleasure of working with Eddie at ABX from 1989 until
his retirement. Eddie always had a way to make you laugh and brighting
the day. If anyone needed help no matter the situation Eddie was there
to help lift a box or offer advice. He will always be in our hearts
and the fond memories will keep him with us forever.
Be Strong and God Bless.
