We called him "Steady Eddy" because he never got upset. His demeanor never changed. Ed was an all around great guy, and truly the best of us in the 210th AR.

Eddie Husband Father Friend to many. The man who supported two women who left their high heels, business suits and manicures to start a house cleaning service 40 years ago. Many tears and a good number of laughs exchanged over those years. You will be missed and always in our hearts.
