This man is truly one amazing person.
When my siblings and I lost our parents he stood up and made sure we were good. He didn’t have to but he did. I will forever hold a special place in my heart for you Uncle Eddie.
You are truly missed and will always be missed. May you rest in heaven with the love of your life. And tear up that dance floor like I know you both are?
I Love You More Than Words Can Express.
Love Treba

Eddie and I worked for a number of years at Millie’s Flower Shop on North Central in the early 1960’s. He was a great friend and mentor to me who at that time I was just 16 years old. I send my prayers and condolences to the family and his friends. He was a nice guy.
