Eddie was a One of a Kind I will miss him so dearly. I met him at the western store and was able to learn about him and his teachings. I was able to buy him breakfast one day as he spoke to my daughter about the importance of school. I always will remember him calling and telling my store he was my doctor and I always called him Dr. Eddie. Rest in peace, you are loved.
