Some of the hobbies he loved to do were going fly fishing with his brothers Oliver and Larry. He collected trains and took his grandson Dimitri on tours of WAAM and train rides on Mt. Hood Railroad. His greatest joy was taking his parents Delbert and Gladys on the many road trips they took before their passing.

Eddie had a very big heart for people and was loved by many. We will miss him, his love for life, his smile and his infectious laugh.
