To Libby, Sean, Tomeshia and children,

We have known Eddie since he was about 12 years old. I still remember this little boy that would come to my door asking for my husband so they can play video games. He would always have a big smile on his face and always had something funny to say. Eddie has touched so many people in so many ways that one can only imagine. For this his memory will never end. My family will always talk about the special times that they had with Eddie who not only became a good friend but a part of the family. My children will always remember their uncle and my husband will always remember his Little Brother “T-Dub. Libby, Sean, Tomeshia and children just remember you didn’t loss Eddie you have gain an “Angel” that will always be by your side. Our prayers are with you….. God Bless you all!!!!

My son will be missed in many ways. He was full of life and was taken from us by someone who does not have love nor value for a human life. My son's babies will growup never knowing thier father. My pain is undiscribable i miss him very deeply. I personally want to thank all of you who helped and cooked and showed him love. To my family Vivian, Eddie, Deserie and my son Sean I thank you helping with the funeral. I do not know what i would had done without any of you. I LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH.. Lets continue to keep my sons memory alive remember his smile, his humor and his laugh.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
