I was completely saddened and shocked when I first heard the news. I had the pleasure of working with Eddy for the past few years. It took about a year and luckily for me Eddy welcomed me into his circle and after that we shared many conversations and shared many inside jokes that we would shout at one another while at work. I will miss him and his random messages.

My deepest condolences to Eddy's family and friends. Rest in peace friend.

I had the pleasure of working with Eddy for a couple of years and I always appreciated his humor, quick wit and bluntness. I am saddened to hear of his passing and would like to send my condolences to the family.

Eddy was a pleasure to have as a colleague in the office. Both with his contributions in the background and his unique sense of humour. Shocked and saddened to learn about the news. Course condolences to other friends and family outside of the office.

Eddy had a big personality and could make anyone laugh with his quick wit and offside humour. He was a dedicated friend and an incredibly intelligent human being.

Eddy was always one of my biggest supporters and without him, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I owe so much to Eddy for sharing his knowledge and expertise with me on a daily basis. I considered myself lucky to be able to call Eddy my friend. He believed in me more than most, and voiced his support and encouragement every single chance he got.

Eddy you were one of a kind, and I’m better for having known you. Rest In Peace, my friend.

My deepest sympathies to his friends and family. I am so sorry for your loss

I am so deeply saddened and hurt at the loss and good friend who was apart of some of the best times of my life. Office mini putt’s, RC monster trucks, skiing and the fireworks extravaganza. It was all so much fun. I miss you Eddy.

If a tree falls in the forest its going to hit Craig and the bolts go in the holes.

There are no words to express the deep sadness and sorrow I feel at the loss of my dear friend and colleague. The times we had together were spent laughing, drinking coffee and swearing. You will be deeply missed my dear friend ... my li’l buddy.

So sad to hear about the passing of Eddy. I have known Eddy for about 20 years and had the opportunity to work with him for a couple of years early on. Always witty and was always positive. He will be sadly missed.

Eddy was a colleague and a friend; intelligent and witty. This is deeply saddening and I miss him.

Eddy and I were coworkers for the better part of 20 years. When I joined the company way back when, he was one of the first people to welcome me into the fold. Ever since then we had been steadfast office buds – our friendship cemented when we found out we drove the same model of car (Honda Civic Hatchback, Black) and loved laughing at everything and anything. We shared many memories over the years, including one excruciating afternoon where I convinced him to teach me how to drive manual/stick in HIS car (a true test of friendship if there ever was one).

I will always remember him for his sharp comebacks, honest takes, hilarious observations and generous nature. Eddy, I miss you already.

Eddy was always great to work with, and had a sharp wit that I enjoyed. It was a pleasure working with him. I’m deeply saddened by his passing. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

Eddy was a one-of-a-kind human I was lucky to call a friend. He had a wicked sense of humor, could always be counted on to help you out of a jam and no matter what, would tell it to you straight. Hearing about his passing is surreal; there are no words. It’s heartbreaking.

My condolences to his family, friends and loved ones.

Eddy, you will be missed.

I was lost for words when I found out Eddy’s passing. He was such a great individual. I will always cherish the wonderful memory with him. i will always remember his classic smile, laugh, joke and all the early morning chat.

Eddy, I will miss you.

Great to have Eddy in my life. It’s been a privilege to work with him. His hobbies were always interesting, and his humour always kept me on my toes.

A great story we shared: being new at our company (maybe 4 months) I was nervous about the upcoming Christmas dinner. I asked Eddy what the dress code was, and with a flat face, Eddy said Jeans was fine. This was an out of town event, so I show up to the hotel I find out everyone is wearing suits. I asked Eddy and he just laughed and said, I thought you knew I was joking.

Condolences to the family. He will be missed.

He was a great friend... helped me a lot at SMP... great moments!

It was a great privilege to get to know this incredibly faithful friend. His humor and support got me through many late nights and literally the toughest moments of my life. There are no words Eddy, but thank you.

You will be missed.

I am very sorry to hear of the loss of Eddy. I worked with Eddy for several years and both my wife Ivana a d my daughter got to know him very well and he will be truly missed.

I am so sad to learn of Eddy's passing. I worked with Eddy back in the day at Cohos Evamy and maintained contact with him over the years. A superior electrical designer and a gifted Cad and Revit guy. He was great to work with. A great sense of humour and a quick wit. Always hard working and dedicated he will be missed in this industry. I want to extend my condolences to Eddy's family on their loss.

We are very sorry to hear of the passing of Eddy. I worked with Eddy and throughout those 20 years we became good friends. We shared our love for the Formula1 races and were always texting when watching the races. Eddy was a man everybody liked because of his humble and friendly demeanor. We will greatly miss him and we offer our heartfelt condolences to the family. Rest in peace my friend.

My husband and I are saddened to hear of Eddys passing. Gary and Eddy worked together for a number of years. Eddy always had a smile and a kind word when you saw him. He was in our home on a few occasions and was always a very gracious and grateful visitor. He was truly a good and decent man. Rest In Peace friend! Gary & Cindy Chomiak

I met Eddy in 2007 when I first got into the RC hobby and he is one of the nicest and most humble guys I know. He also had a great sense of humor. We raced a lot together and even travelled to out of province races many times together. The last few years we were in a yearly Nascar pool where he would always tell you how great Jr. was. Even a few months ago he mentioned he might come back to RC race in the winter. He will be missed.

Eddy was a true friend. Our paths crossed many years ago and he remembered me from when Kelly and I where moving a BBC in the basement of his house. Eddy would have been quite young but amazingly he remembered the event and myself. Later on we met again due to our involvement with RC cars. From there, if I went to a competition in Calgary, I would either stay with Eddy or at least have a visit with him. I knew that he would come to Saskatoon to visit family every Xmas so I would make it a habit to contact him around that time to see if we could get together.....Eddy being the family kind of guy, it would never happen but we would have a good talk regardless. I talked to Eddy in December, the day he was actually graduating from his web course, he was so excited and I'm glad I could share that event with him. Very saddened to hear of his passing, RIP young man.

I only knew Eddy through RC car racing and he was always a welcoming presence at the track and a great competitor. He will be missed by our racing community.

Sending my deepest condolences to Eddy’s family. The news of his passing is such sad news. Thinking of you all. ❤️ Viv and family

I was so saddened to hear about Eddy's passing. I remember vividly his fantastic sense of humour, and was always jealous that he could so easily disarm my sisters with a joke or jab, when it took me so much work. I can only imagine how much his close family and friends will feel his loss; my thoughts are with you all.

Our hearts broke when we heard of Eddy's passing. We will hold dear, the many years of his attendance at our 'Christmas Eve Appetizer parties.' I remember him making the trek down in time to attend as he didn't want to miss out on all the wonderful food. The year he couldn't travel to Saskatoon for Christmas, we made a "pretend Eddy' and placed him in the room with us because celebrating wasn't the same without him.

We feel blessed that he was part of our lives and will hold a special place in our hearts for him, always.

He's in a better place, holding his beer and his orange! We will miss you , Ed. Travel safely in peace.

Rita, Rylan and Landyn Moate
