I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Eddie. We met at the EBC Club and have been friends for 20 years. Whenever I saw Eddie we would engage in conversation talking about sports politics or current events. Eddie could be a very compassionate person but he was just a good guy. He will be sorely missed.
