I think of Eddie often as I remember the days at the softball games all around Southside Virginia. And I remember the time we were at the fast food restaurant in Emporia and Gene and Ole Anderson {wrestlers) were in line in front of us. I have great appreciation for his acceptance of me as a friend. We were both hesitant to approach them!
