I am so sorry to hear of Eddie's passing. I only knew him briefly, but I could see what an amazing young man he was. He was always very kind, respectful of others, and made everyone smile with his great sense of humor. RIP, Eddie. You will be missed.

Every week, I saw Edward in the house. I loved to watch him play the piano. I always saw him downstairs at the house in his little workshop and in the chair, watching a movie. I always made little conversations with him. I'm going to miss that deeply. I will miss you, Edward. Laura and Leland, I'm very very sorry. Stay strong. Love, Wioletta.
