Joan Finnegan wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Finnegan Family, I was so sad to learn of Eddy's passing. I met him when I was dating his Brother Tom. I was 15 years old at the time. I also lived w/his Wife Lerlene for a while in West Hartford when Tom went into the Marine Corps. Eddy was always a good friend to me and I was so proud of all he had gone through and remained so honorable. I'm happy he is in Heaven w/Tom,Bobby,Maureen & Kathy.”
