He was predeceased by his parents Frank and Simone.

Eddy was born and raised in St. Boniface. He was a devout Catholic and member of the Knights of
Columbus. Married over 60 years to the love of his life, Mafalda, Eddy was dedicated to his children, grandchildren and, in his later years, his great-grandchildren who regularly filled days with joy and play. A great sports enthusiast, he rarely missed attending his children and grandchildren’s hockey games or watching a Jets or Blue Jays game.
