ReplyDeleteI remember Eddie when he was a student at our school Union here in New Castle. Eddie always had a smile and was one of the nicest young men that I have ever met. I will always remember the hug he gave me last year. Eddie you were one great guy and brave soldier. You will be missed. Beryl McClay
