Eddie was a loving and very caring husband, father and grandfather. His love for his work kept him going for 24 years, retiring in 1995 from Mundys Maintenance at Invista Corp. He enjoyed fishing and hunting but most of all, he enjoyed his children and grandchildren. He will be dearly missed but we are at peace just knowing that Daddy is at peace. Now in his forever home with Jesus.
