Eddie, as he was known to all, was a great husband and father who loved his family fiercely. He was especially proud to be a Grandpa to his two granddaughters and his face lit up whenever they were around. He was a good friend and neighbor and always lent a helping hand. He loved the outdoors, whether it was fishing, hunting, or just playing with his dogs. He was a quiet soul but he could make you feel his love in a big way.
