Just seeing his picture, brings back so many memories! I sure do love his family, spent a lot of time with them while we were growing up! His mom was my favorite Aunt! We will be praying for this family and my favorite cousin, Corky and Dorise. I know he will be missed but I am sure there is a better home in heaven just waiting for him
I’m so sorry for your loss. These times can be so hard for us to endure. Something that’s always helped me was a scripture in Revelation 21:4, which says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed.”. If you need someone to talk to, or if you would like to learn more, feel free to reach out to me. M
Kathy and family I am so very sorry for your loss.praying for you all.

So very sorry to hear of Eddie’s passing. He was a dear friend. We lived in the same neighborhood as kids, went to school together, graduated together, rented our first homes together, rode bikes together, rode motorcycles together, dented automobiles together, worked together, and learned a number of life lessons together. He was a best man at my wedding. My life was better for knowing and being a part of Eddy Chappell’s life. I have so very many memories of our formative years near Little Elm and onward. I really could go on and on. My very solemn condolences!
