Eddie was a quality control employee with Webber Farms in Lawrenceburg until he was disabled by an automobile accident on his way to work and prior to this, he worked at Caulk Hardware.
Eddie loved motorcycles and was formerly employed at Smith Yamaha Shop, and he enjoyed boats and anything with speed. The fact that he survived the 1974 tornado because his father put his helmet on him which was ripped off by the wind may have made him feel invincible.

Sherman and Mike Wilcoxson and wife, Sue and Wendell Wilcoxson and wife, Dana of Hodgenville; special friends, Stanley Junior and Kathy McCubbin of Campbellsville and many other relatives and friends.
