Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceMy condolences to Cheryl, my niece's Carolyn, and Angie, and other family members. I used to see Eddie at the Broad Street Market on Saturday's sitting and fellowshipping with his friends. I would stop by the table to say hello. I'll never forget the captain crunch cereal he brought home from his job he worked for. That became my best cereal ever. Rest in peace brother-in-law.
