May the work I've done speak for me....
May the life I've lived speak for me....
May the service I've gave speak for me....
When I'm resting in my grave and nothing can be said, May the work I've done, speak for me!
Eddie was always a loving person that greeted everyone with a smile. He always invited the gospel groups to participate on musical programs. He was always willing to travel to various churches to participate or just support the programs. He loved the LORD and had no problem letting the world know. His kind spirit and genuine expression of love displayed will always be remembered and cherished by all. On behalf of all choirs, soloists and gospel groups, we love you and will miss you dearly. You fought a good fight, kept the faith and now you will receive your just reward for a job well done. You were a good and faithful servant of God. Family continue to pray because GOD is still in charge!
