EDDY, William Donald - With the help of my family and my many dear friends I endured hardships and losses in my life. With them I also enjoyed all the good things that life had to offer. Like a highway, life has many curves, hills and gullies that offer character to the otherwise straight, level and boring stretches. I always awoke with a song in my mind and I always looked for colour in the day. I looked for positive aspects in everyone that I met. I laughed at my own shortcomings and rejoiced in my triumphs no matter how trivial. To all those that I love, farewell. Live in peace. Bill
