He was a hard worker who provided for his family by working at the coal prep plant in Prenter, WV. Anyone who knows Eddie knows that he liked to play just as hard as he worked. He collected race cars and models; guns and ammo; music and movies. He was always up for watching Chiller or scary movies with all the fixins' and all the cousins or grandchildren. More than anything, Ole'"Big Ed" loved to tell stories and reminisce about the past. He also loved music just as much! His love of classic cars coupled with his love for good movies led to many nights watching his favorite movie, "Dazed & Confused"

Eddie had been ill for many years. His first cancer diagnosis was 18 years ago and his latest was weeks ago. He suffered several types of cancer over the years. He gave his life to the Lord therefore he is now in Heaven rejoicing without any pain or sorrow. May we all find comfort in knowing that we shall all meet again someday on the God's golden shore.
