We celebrate the life of Edmund Erdos, known affectionately as "Eddie", “Fast Eddie” and "Ernie", a man who lived each day with an unmatched zest for life. Born on April 8, 1960, Eddie left this world doing what he loved on October 19, 2024. His vivacious spirit and larger-than-life personality ensured that he was always the heart of the party, making everyone around him laugh with his infectious sense of humor and jovial nature.

A proud United States Marine, Eddie embodied strength, dedication, and loyalty in everything he did. His love for his country was matched only by his love for his wife Renee Erdos, his lifelong partner and soulmate. Together, they shared countless memories and built a bond that will never be broken.

Always ready for a good time, Eddie enjoyed the simple pleasures in life - watching sports, sharing a beer with friends, and enjoying a shot of Brandy. He was a dependable friend, always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need, and his generosity touched the lives of many.

As we gather to honor Eddie's memory, let us remember the joy he brought to all those around him and the lasting impact he had on our lives. Though he may no longer be with us in person, his spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

He is survived by his wife, Renee; children, Edmund, Robert, Rebeka; grandchildren, Antonio, Arianna, Oliver; mother, Irma; adopted children, Ryan, Kaili; siblings, nieces, nephews, other family and dear friends.

In celebration of Eddie's life, a memorial service will be held at 2:00 PM, on Friday, November 1, 2024, at Mounds Park United Methodist Church, 1049 Euclid St., St. Paul. Family will be greeting friends one hour prior to the service at the church. Burial will be at Ft. Snelling National Cemetery. Let us come together to pay tribute to a man whose laughter and kindness will forever be remembered.

Rest in peace, Eddie. Your memory will forever be cherished in our hearts.
