Eddirick was BIG on family and helping them however he could. He was a very strong person and brought laughter and light to any situation. Eddirick was very comical, but overall he enjoyed seeing others happy and in good spirits. Even in his battle, he still laughed, smiled, talked his junk, joked around and held on to hope. He was a fighter.
