Eddie (Rambo) with the bandana was always asking me where I would be working and if he could come and give me a hand. He was still in High School at the time of this picture but this was in the summer.

Eddie and his best friend John wanted on the job experience so they could apply it to the studies they were embarking on. Eddie used to tell me that he would be able to draw the plans that we needed to perform our projects.

God must have needed him for an important project in his wonderful kingdom like designing some of the many Mansions that are in his house. Can you imagine a house full of mansions? I'm talkin huge now.

Eddie loved the Lord Jesus and I had the priviledge of praying with him when he asked the Lord to be his personal savior, a time I will never forget. It was in the Arizona desert. We went for a ride that night on my motorcycle and he tapped me on the shoulder to tell me he wanted to stop for a minute. And that's when he asked me to pray with him. He was always willing to do what the Lord asked of him.

He loved his family very dearly. He had a special place in his heart for every one of his sisters and brothers and his Mom and Dad.

One morning as we ate breakfast and prepared to go to work, Ed said," I had a dream last night ". I said to him, "and"?  After trying to pry it out of him for ten minutes or so he finally told me this: " It was bad, but, it was good". OK, after all that and this is what you tell me? It was bad, but it was good". He said," you'll find out soon, I just can't tell you". It was about a year later that I did find out and it was the saddest day of my life. It hit me like a ton of bricks. Our brother had a dream about his own passing. The bad part to us is how he passed, the good part is where he passed to.

It's twenty eight years since his passing and I can still hear him in my mind, my wonderful willing to fight the good fight brother, Edmund Peter Maiale.

I will try to post more pictures as I find them.

Love to you Eddie,

Love to all,

Larry
