  2. Eddie was always very kind and helpful to us as customers at Rich Oil. His daily smile and sense of humor was always refreshing! Our entire community has lost a fine person. If you all need anything, please let us know. You and your family will remain in our daily prayers.

  3. I am so sorry for your loss. God must have really needed a good, big hearted man to help Him in Heaven to have taken Eddie at such a young age. He was always so polite and helpful when I seen him. I went to school with his sister Marylin.
    I remember when he bought his green jeep, we were both looking for one at the same time. He got the better deal and I used to tease him about selling it to me. 🙂 He will be greatly missed by all. I don't think he ever knew a stranger, he greeted everyone with a beautiful heart.
    Rest in peace my friend. I'm in shock over this just as, I'm sure, your family is. The world lost a wonderful man but Heaven gained an Angel. God bless and comfort all of his family and friends. Till we all meet in Heaven, may Jesus be your guide. Amen.
    Sincerely,
    Debi
