Eddie was a beloved son, brother, father, grandfather, and friend. Known for his green thumb, yearly garden and canning, love of hunting Indian relics, researching and teaching others about family heritage, and story telling (some truths…and some not), Eddie’s hands were never idle. For many years he was a skilled mechanic and loved working on old cars, trucks, and tractors. Eddie loved working with his daughters Lori and Genia at Canvas Craze, making beautiful creations for their customers. Eddie’s favorite pastime was spending time and making memories with his grandchildren that he was so proud of and loved to talk about to anyone that would listen.
