Eddie was born June 09, 1947 in Quannah, Texas, a son of Floyd and Dessie Cantrell. He attended school in Lubbock, Texas where he graduated with the Coronado High School class of 1966.
Eddie married the love of his life, Linda Hungerford March 19, 1966 in Clovis, New Mexico. They were blessed with their son Robert, daughter Laura Christine, and God daughter Nakole. He was a father who loved his children dearly and provided them with love and support throughout their lives. He was a proud Paw Paw to his grandchildren Shelby, Lilly, Edward, Jake, Josh, and Noe'. Eddie loved attending their events, spending time with them, and watching them grow and find their path.
Eddie was happiest when serving his community. He was the Founder and President of the Dibble Senior Center since 2007. They developed a food pantry for seniors and patrons of the Dibble community. The pantry is in its new location that Eddie made sure was purchased before he got ill. EC/GGTW
