It was always a pleasure to see Mr. Eddie as a kid. I was always excited to see him. He was always laid back, happy and loved his hot rods. I have known him all of my life. My mother Betty Brooks lived with Irene and Red Odom and knew Eddie very well also. She has fond memories of him, and they were the same age. James Brooks

Uncle Eddie was a very special uncle to me and my two sisters. He would like to pick on us all the time. He was always there to help anyone that needed it. He's going to be missed by so many people. I dont think he really knew how many friends he has. He has touched so many lives. My heart is so heavy right now. I'm going to miss that handsome smile he always had. I know he's rejoicing with my mom and dad right now. Until we meet again Uncle Eddie just remember how much we love and see going to miss you.

A very special uncle that meant so much to us and taught us so many things. Nothing like getting to see that smile on his handsome face and it will be missed greatly just like so many other things that only belonged to him. Rest in peace Uncle Eddie, no more worries or pain and knowing this helps with the sadness that I feel knowing that I will never get to see you again here on this earth. I know that you went knowing how much you were loved because I told you every time we saw each other. Always in my heart and you will never be forgotten.
