Surrounded by family at Kingston General Hospital on Monday, February 9, 2015 at the age of 66 years, I lost the love of my life and my best friend. Beloved husband of Cheryl (nee Alexander) for 45 years. Beloved son of the late Frances Cairns and predeceased by his brother Eric Aslett (Marge Baart) of Sidney, British Columbia. Beloved brother-in-law of Jack Alexander (Katherine) of St. Albert, Ontario, William Alexander (Fiona) of Constance Bay, Ontario and very special brother-in-law to Joan Alexander of Constance Bay, Ontario and the George Lamendeau family of Arnprior, Ontario. Eddie will also be sadly missed by many nieces, nephews and his Goddaughter Shannon (Alexander) Munro. Thank you to the wonderful ICU staff on Kidd 2 that took such compassionate care of Eddie. Special thanks to Brian and Loren who looked after Eddie and helped him on his final journey. I would also like to send a special thank you to Al McVickers for all his help working with Eddie and the laughs they shared during Eddie’s physio sessions, also to Cindy and Tohe who came to visit Eddie on Saturdays, Tohe always brought the widest smile to Eddie’s face and Eddie enjoyed giving Tohe a scratch on the head. Tohe and Cindy are a wonderful addition to Kidd 2 ICU floor, and finally to Leslie, Eddie’s Christmas Elf who kept me laughing during the most difficult time. Eddie also leaves behind a very special group of friends and neighbours. Cremation in the care of James Reid Crematorium, Kingston. A celebration of his life will take place at the Garden Chapel of Tubman Funeral Home, 3440 Richmond Road, on Saturday, February 28. Friends will be received from 11 am until service time at 12 pm. Reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to make a donation in Eddie’s memory, a donation to the Trillium Gift for Life or the Ontario Lung Association would be appreciated.
