I just read that Eddie Seth passed away in 2015. This makes my heart cry as I loved who Eddie was in High School. Eddie and I were in homeroom class together in 10th grade. We sat next to each other and I remember him being such a sweet quiet person. I always loved talking to Eddie. I am so glad that he married his wife and she was the love of his life as I know this brought him great happiness in his life. I also am thankful he had children and his family. Eddie will always hold a soft spot in my heart as he was so very sweet. I am so sorry for his families loss. I also want to share something funny when I was in 10th grade and sat next to Eddie... I had such a school girl crush on him. But Eddie was shy and so quiet but I did make him laugh. He and I would end up talking about the Mustang my father gave me to drive in High School. I also enjoyed Harley Davidson Motorcycles. Would love to hear from his wife to let me know about him when they were married in life. I always enjoyed Eddie...
