Lynn, Fantasia, and rest of family i've not met....I was Eddie's mother-in-law when he was married to Fantasia's mother. He was a wonderful and loving young man when I last saw him. I'm so glad Fantasia was able to reach out and connect as well as meet with him. Words cannot express the sadness my heart feels, especially when I'm seeing his picture and how he looks just like Fantasia when she was a few months old with a furry head of hair growing in! I just saw that picture of her with his Mom, Lynn and then saw the post about his death. Again, I'm sorry for your loss and will pray for you during this time of sadness. Marlene

'Little 'Eddie' I am so sorry for letting time and distance come between us, a regret I will always have. I will always have the great memories of the time I did get to spend with you when you stayed with me some years ago and we became close, just wished it would have lasted longer. I'm not going to say 'Goodbye' but 'See You Later' cause I know we will be together again one day. Til then
