Eddii became a baker at a young age and owned multiple bakeries throughout his lifetime. He eventually worked at Safeway until his retirement where he continued to bake regularly for family & friends.

As one of the founding members of The Chilliwack German Canadian Club, Eddii spent countless hours as a proud member organizing Fathers Day and other activities. He was involved wherever he could be and in turn developed many lifelong friendships.

Family & Friends were the most important things in life to Eddii. He often said he was such a rich man even though he had no money. He was a family man with a generous heart of gold, never hesitating to help people out.

Eddii’s family feels a huge void in their lives but now know that he is in no more pain. He was one of a kind and will be dearly missed.

A celebration of life will be held at the Chilliwack Curling Club, 45550 Spadina Ave in Chilliwack on October 29 from 1 to 4 p.m. We will have refreshments and fellowship as we share stories of Eddii’s legacy.
