I recently received notice from Jack Kay, one of the job superintendents on the Loma Linda University Medical Center project, that sadly Eddie passed away peacefully on January 25, 2024. While on the Loma Linda project, he was responsible for determining that the steel columns were plumb and remained plumb at every level. I featured Eddie in a blog dated November 19, 2018 Vignette — Edward (Eddie), An Ironworker and a Plumb Up Foreman. The title of the blog was: Vignette – Edward (Eddie), An Ironworker and a Plumbup Foreman. Eddie was a standup guy. I count it a privilege that our paths crossed on that project. MY FRIEND, MAY YOU REST IN PEACE!
