I fondly remember his work with Duncan's Body Shop a few years ago. His work ethic was second to none. All my memories of Eddie are very pleasant. My prayers are with the family. He will always be remembered.

Dear Covington family, Just wanted you all to know that you are in our prayers. The loss of a loved one is a difficult time for all who loved them. Eddie was a good man. Everyone liked him. He was such a friendly person. What I remember most about him was his gentle spirit. May God comfort you at this time as only He can.
