You were like a big brother to me. I have many memories of us writing music and singing together. You were a major influence in my life and always will be. No words will ever explain how much I miss you.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Very few people have the opportunity to touch the world through their art after they are gone...may his love reach out to you through the sounds of his music. May his passion live on and continue to touch the lives of those he left behind. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Eddie and Trosha, Judy, and the Struzicks, I will always remember when we were in high school listening to Eddie play and sing in our basement in Rivermont and knew he was special. For you, . . . I believe that hope survives, love prevails, tears cleanse, memories comfort, faith soothes, good thoughts reassure, and that our belief in a better place calms the heart. In deepest sympathy, Ted and Helen Jackle Sparks

Laura, Lee, and family, I remember Eddie at SHS, he always had a big smile and wore those little blue glasses. He was a stranger to no one, big hearted, and one thing I remember more than all else was that he loved music. I can see him so clear in my mind. I pray that God give you all peace in this mournful time. God Bless All Of You.
