Eddie was a member of Wall Brethren Church, in which he served as an elder and chaired the Harvest Festival BBQ Committee for many years. Blessed with a large family and many friends, Dad shared his love of cooking and hospitality with his loved ones at every opportunity, especially lunches each Sunday after church. These get-togethers also included dove cookouts, fish fries, sausage-making and playing dominoes.
