Eddie enjoyed going to church with his wife, and playing cards and dice with their friends. At an early age he started fishing and enjoying the outdoors with his dad at Birch Creek. Later he would speak of the many trips taken with his son Adam. He enjoyed sports, coaching, playing, watching and supporting everyone who asked. He enjoyed spontaneous trips with his sisters to Yellowstone National Park, Jackson Hole Wyoming, and to see shows. Going over Lolo Pass to Lewiston, Idaho, to spend time or just driving over to try his luck at a local casino. He would do anything to put a smile on your face especially when he thought you were down, even going as far as twerking. Eddie was a character who brought love and happiness to all he met.

One in a million and full of life. He was all of these things and more and tried to instill them in all of his children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews and everyone he met.
