As many of you know our beloved Eddie Paulson lost his fight to cancer on February 20, 2021. Eddie fought so hard these past 2 years after being diagnosed, and he was strong all the way up to his final moments. Eddie lived his life for his daughter Jessica, and they did everything together. She had to make some hard decisions and she is absolutely devastated by his loss. However, I know she is trying to stay strong because that's what Eddie would've wanted! 

I started this GoFundMe to help Jessica with Eddie's memorial services. Unfortunately, he didn't have life insurance and she has to pay for everything out of pocket. His cremation is $3,000 alone. I know Jessica wants to do everything she can to honor Eddie's life, but life has thrown her a few curveballs of her own. This is a lot of financial strain to put on someone so young, and I know Eddie wouldn't want Jessica to struggle like this. All donations will go directly towards Eddie's memorial. Please, if you can donate ANYTHING, every little bit will help!

Rest easy, Eddie, we love and miss you. Have a cold one for us up there.

Here is the message Jessica posted on 2/22/21:
"Good morning everyone. Unfortunately my Dad passed away over the weekend. I know he has A LOT of friends on here, which is the only reason why I’m posting. Feel free to DM me with any questions.
Cancer Won in the end. The last 6 months he was battling his cancer coming back and ESRD, on top of other things. He faught so hard and I am so proud of him. I had to make the decision to remove the tube keeping him alive at 330pm Friday he passed away Saturday February 20th at 7am. He was in no pain and I was with him all day.
I know he is in a better place and looking down on me proudly. All he wants is for me to be happy and to follow my dreams. I could not have asked for a better Dad, I am the luckiest girl in the world to have had him, And I’m blessed to have been his daughter. He is the reason I am who I am.
I will keep everyone updated on when we are going to have the memorial. My brother is helping out a lot and making this process a little easier for me. Just know I am ok. And I’m so greatful for the extra time I got with my Dad that A lot of people don’t get. At the end of the day no matter how prepared we are, nobody is ever ready to lose a parent. I’m choosing to focus on only the good times.
Im asking everyone here to call their parents or loved ones and tell them you love them.
I love you Dad and will miss you every minute of every day. Im so relived you are out of pain and in heaven with Oma,Opa, grandma, uncle chucky and Eliza. I know I will see you again one day. And I can feel you with me. Thank you for being the best dad in the world you did a great job raising me solo. I will be ok Dad and I love you so much!"
