What was it about Eddie that hit you different?

He was one of my "my guys." Plus, he'd already overcome so much to get where he was. And I was only like 17 or something when he passed. I mean, I'm never particularly "gutted" when a celebrity passes--even back then. But I was definitely like, "god fucking dammit" when he passed. He had so much more to give.
