Eddie was born on July 9, 1931 in Chelsea. He was raised and educated in Revere. He was an alumnus of Immaculate Conception High School, Class of 1949. Eddie then furthered his education and passion by attending Wentworth Academy in Boston (Now Wentworth Institute). Eddie studied Engineering and Cabinet Making. He then began his career along with his father at Page Cabinet Shop. Early on in Eddie's career he enlisted in the United States Navy where he served his country admirably and faithfully during the Korean War. Eddie was honorably discharged and was always very proud of his service to his country. Eddie returned back home to Revere and continued working with his father at the cabinet shop. He later took over the whole business and provided many people throughout the City of Revere and beyond with his craftsmanship. He prided himself on the way he conducted his business and the work that he did. After retiring from the family business, he then took a job with Home Depot, where they used his vast knowledge and sent him to many homes measuring for kitchen and bathroom remodels.

Eddie truly loved wintering in Florida and enjoyed the sunshine. He loved taking regular walks along the beach. He was also well known for his other love in life, ballroom dancing. As a young man he would be found dancing at the Wonderland Ballroom and anywhere else the opportunity would present itself. He was a great fan of football, and he especially loved the New England Patriots. This gave him great joy. Eddie was a man who will be remembered as living his life by doing the things he loved the most and loving the people that mattered the most to him, especially his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

He is the loving father of Edward G. Page, III and his wife Theresa, Timothy J. Page and Jane F. Page, all of Revere. He is the cherished and proud grandfather of Fallon E. (DiPlatzi) Cadigan and her husband Jonathan of Winthrop, Christian Eaves of Revere and Jillian Eaves of Tampa, Florida. He is the adored great grandfather of Ayla, Briac, and Briley. He is the former husband of the late Ernestine (Fallon) Page who was the mother of his three children. He is the dear brother of the late James F. Page, Sr. and Dorothy Hanlon. He is also lovingly survived by many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, extended family and friends.
