    We are sorry for your families loss. Praying for all.
    We remember Eddy when he was in grade school and my family would go and visit Bessie.

    Eddie was a photographer on The Apache Drumbeat staff of which I was the sponsor at H. Grady Spruce High School from 1966-73. What an outstanding person he was! I have fond memories of my days at Spruce and all of the wonderful students like Eddie on the Drumbeat staff and Senior Pub staff. God bless you, Eddie.
