Boy O' Boy do I miss Eddie! Thank the Good Lord for his extensive Video library...such a treasure from a generous teacher! R.I.P. Friend!

I was so very sad when I found out about Eddy’s passing. I never met Eddy in person, but exchanged greetings in the comments section under his video posts. Eddy exhibited his love for music, his love for life, and his love for sharing his knowledge with each video. His generous spirit and talent was a precious gift that he shared willingly. He inspired me to return to the tenor banjo. My sympathy goes out his family and friends. An African proverb states that when an elder dies, a whole library goes up in flames. With the passing of Eddy, a whole university has vanished. And yet, his spirit can live on in all of us who took inspiration from Eddy. We can pick up our instruments and try to honor him in our playing, in our respect for his music, and in our being the best person we can be.

I only really discovered Eddy this year after he died and the more of his videos I watch the more I feel the loss. Thank you Eddy.

Very sad news. My kids and I had the pleasure of seeing Eddy with Woody last summer in Madrid. It was a wonderful concert. Eddy was an amazing musician, always smiling. Very, very, very sad news! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I was thinking about Eddie recently during this crisis. Never met him, but exchanged comments on youtube. I learned so much about how music works from watching hours of him. Bought my one tenor banjo because of him, then tuned it properly away from guitar tuning to learn it properly. I truly feel like I lost a friend today. I actually wanted to reach out for a lesson in person as I am a New Yorker too.
