What can I say about him? His name is Eddie (was seems so unreal) Somebody’s son, brother, uncle, friend. Some said he liked his drugs and the fellas a bit too much. Maybe so but to me he was just Eddie. He touched me deep inside with his genuine concern, perpetual smile, jovial manner, gentle touch. Never down, never hurried, he gave me time, a warm greeting, a smile, an embrace. He gave me special. What can I say? Someone very special Is gone and the world is diminished.

Thank you, Kathleen, Sandra and Martie. He passed away in his sleep after work on Saturday night, most likely from a heart attack or a stroke (his brother had a stroke but survived last year...age 48). He was only 45. Please keep his family in your prayers. |

Denise: I'm so sorry to hear of your sorrow. He did have the blessing of not suffering a lingering illness and he left a mark on people who knew him. Small comfort I'm sure, but you will remember him as being "special". Betty Lou Hebert |

Thank you, Lady and Nan for your thoughtful and kind comments. His sudden passing was yet another reminder to me to cherish every second that we have with those that we love. Tomorrow is not a guarantee to any of us. |

Sad. Everyone is special to someone... somewhere.. somehow... everyone is special. It is sad when a soul leaves the earth.. for there is always 'someone' left behind. Sad. |

Well I guess loving a person means only truely knowing them and not judging them, but this is so sad as well I'm sorry you lost him. You don't have a choice to die but you do have a choice how you meet it. |

No one deserves death, especially a premature death like this one, no matter what they have done. Everyone has something special about them. Eddie seems like a very special person, Denise. He will live on. |
