Hi, this is James & Melina Reason (Eddie’s daughter and son in law). We were both blown away by the support and the number of people who showed up for Eddie’s retirement. From where he came and the impact Eddie has made on so many people is remarkable and incredible. As most of you know you have to have a passion for teaching and you don’t go into it for the money. With that being said, it has been Eddie’s dream to have his own bass boat. With the way he has sacrificed his time for all of us and our kids I feel like this is a great opportunity to give back. We appreciate your time to read and give. Eddie doesn’t know about this yet, but when we turn over the funds, he will be able to see everyone who has given and will be very thankful. God Bless, James and Melina.
