We fondly remember Edward Earl Leon Winslow, III from our days at TSU where we were briefly roommates. Eddie was very thoughtful, very funny and a great fraternity brother. Who can forget the Corvair that he drove us around in and which left him stranded at Purdue with the brothers? LOL. He will be missed but we look forward to seeing him in Omega Chapter one day. Rest on good brother!

Terry & Jerry Chambers

Winslow will be greatly missed! Even in sickness, he was in great spirits, having fun with the brothers when Rick Ingram, Anthony Jones and I visited him in ICU in Birmingham. Again a good brother who will be truly missed by us all. May God give comfort to the family and let us all rejoice knowing that Eddie is now at home with the Lord.

Vernon Jackson Jr

May the Lord Keep and Comfort You As you Celebrate the Life and Legacy of Brother Ed .Remember God Never Abandons his Children
