War Chief's battle ends suddenly

Donation protected
War chief of the Seaconke Wampanoag Tribe,  Edward R. Lincoln ended his battle with metastatic brain cancer on Saturday June 9th. He was surrounded by love and laughter during the day as many visitors came to share remembrances and offer support.  As dusk fell, the family played at a cross word puzzle. They gathered round his bedside as he dozed peacefully and an early summer breeze filled the air.  As his wife Pam (his little peanut) sat on the bed holding his hand, he gently snored. She was enjoying her silly family trying to guess 42 down when Eddy quietly exhaled and passed. He was in death as in life. Dignified, comfortable and very very handsome, however now in his passing he truly looked at peace.

Born December 12, 1953  to the lovely Beverly and the late and great Mr Edward Lincoln. He was eldest of 6 tight knit and rambuncious brothers. To this day their bond is stronger than ever and they hold each other in the highest respect. His brothers attended his bedside, as well as his numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Eddy's passing was made comfortable by Phillip Hulitar Hospice. The remarkable staff and facility provided him dignity and compassionate care. We are forever grateful. 

If you are reading these lines, Eddy has touched your life in some way. His battle with brain, lung, liver and pancreatic cancer was exhausting emotionally and financially. 

During his life time he donated over 11 gallons of blood. Through this contribution he gave valuable life saving blood cells to people in need. Now his family is in need of support to meet funeral costs.

Donate to this go fund me page to provide a proper christian burial and remembrance. Whatever you donate is appreciated. No amount is too small and every donation is a priceless contribution to a man who was generous, and always willing to lend a helping hand.

Consider sharing this post as an act of donation as well.

(*if you are not sure how to do this, grab a teenager whose thumbs are always on their phones and tell you need to do something important and ask them how to do a #fact post)

Finally, consider donating blood. Ed donated consistently over his entire adult life and strongly believed doing so saves lives.

Formal orbituary and funeral plans to be released soon.
