Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Eddie would come by the store every so often and pick up a toner cartridge for his printer. Always enjoyed listening to his stories. Sorry for your loss.

Brenda and Rodney and family: We were so saddened to learn of Eddie's death. I have such good memories of you and Eddie when we lived across the street from you (when Bob was overseas). Bob got acquainted with Eddie after we moved back to Harrison and thought highly of him. Our prayers go out for you and the family for the days ahead won't be easy.

I will be forever great full for Eddie helping to save my family in the Harrison flood. If it were not for him my family could well have drowned . He risk his life to save us.
His family and mine were very close and I have find members growing up just across the street from the shoe shop .

My deepest sympathy and prayers to the family and friends he leaves behind . “When God calls our loved ones home He leaves us with the gift of memories.” I hope that your memories help carry you through the days, week, months and years to come.

I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Eddie. He was a great man and fellow Christian! I enjoyed attending his FBI class and working with him in AWANA! My son will never forget the night they went night fishing together! I know he is resting in the arms of Jesus and will continue to sing in the choir with an angelic voice. Love you Brenda! I'll be praying for you and your family during this time. God bless!
