Edward Vincent "Eddie" Locke ObituaryEdward "Eddie" Vincent Locke, age 45, of Willowick, Ohio, passed away peacefully on November 1, 2025. Born on October 7, 1980, to Thomas and Helen Locke (née Rush), Eddie was a lifelong resident of Willowick who poured his heart and hands into everything he did.
Eddie was the loving brother of Ryan (Heather) Locke, Joshua J. Locke and Thomas T. Locke Jr. and the proud, adoring uncle of Grady. A talented and dedicated member of Union Carpenter 2955 for 25 years, Eddie took great pride in his craftsmanship-his creativity and skill were evident in the beautiful kitchen and bathrooms he remodeled in his own home.
He shared that home with his beloved French Bulldog, Sloane. Eddie was a man who made everyone around him feel comfortable and welcome-he was kind, humble, and genuine, and truly didn't have an enemy in the world.
A man of few words but an easy smile, Eddie found joy in life's simple pleasures. A loyal Clevelander through and through, he stood by his Browns and Guardians, weathering every win and loss with steadfast faith. His warmth, loyalty, and good-hearted nature will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, November 15, from 3:00 to 5:00 PM at The Abbey of Willoughby, 38011 Euclid Avenue, Willoughby, Ohio (located on the grounds of the McMahon-Coyne-Vitantonio Funeral Home).
Eddie will be remembered for his kindness, his craftsmanship, his easy smile, and the gentle way he moved through life. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
