So many childhood memories with Uncle Eddie. I can still picture him in his hunting gear and that big bear rug he had. I´ll alwaus remember when he lived with my dad in Pottsville and their house looking like a typical bachelor pad with my cousin Amy and I visiting in our weekends with our dads. Such special times. He´ll always hold a special place in my heart. Thinking of Will, Alyson, and their children during this time.
