Eddie Dwayne Tuttle, born on April 22, 1963, in Marion, Ohio, has left an indelible mark on the hearts of those around him. Eddie passed away unexpectedly at his home in Orlando on December 6, 2025. His life was characterized by a remarkable work ethic and boundless love, both of which will be cherished by his family and friends.
From an early age, Eddie demonstrated an unwavering dedication to his family and work. He chose to leave school early to begin supporting himself and his loved ones, embarking on various jobs throughout his life. He was notably mechanically inclined, spending much of his career working in machine shops and employing his hands in various capacities. Eddie took great pride in his ability to tackle mechanical challenges, and his industrious nature was a testament to his commitment to providing for his family.
Eddie is best remembered for his immense love for his family. He was especially proud of his wife, Karen S. Tuttle, daughters Abigal Frame and her husband, Andrew, and Cheyenne Tuttle, as well as his son, Samuel Tuttle. He devoted himself tirelessly to their well-being, often sacrificing his own desires for their happiness. His profound sense of faith led him to accept God’s calling to ministry, a journey he embraced with sincerity and strength.
Beyond his dedication to work and family, Eddie was known for his captivating personality. A true jokester at heart, he possessed a gifted sense of humor that brought laughter and joy to those fortunate enough to know him. His talent for friendly pranks and generous spirit made him a beloved figure among family and friends. Anyone who was fortunate to have been loved by Eddie felt that love deeply.
Eddie had a passion for going junking, relishing the opportunity to help others find exactly what they were looking for, especially when they were unable to do so themselves. This commitment to service further underscores the generous nature he possessed throughout his life.
Eddie is survived by his parents, Thurman and Shelby (Mann) Tuttle; his wife, Karen S. Tuttle; his children, Abigal Frame and Andrew, Cheyenne Tuttle, and Samuel Tuttle; his brothers, Gary Tuttle and Debra, and Kenneth Tuttle and Tina; his sister, Rhonda Brown and Regan; as well as several nieces, nephews, and countless friends.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Virginia Sue Tuttle.
