Damn, I'm best friends with Eddie's BIL. I asked him around Xmas, and he said that Eddie was doing better. Fuck!

Edit: A year ago it was really bad, and then it looked better. I know his wife, friend's sister, other sister worked there too. Camped with the guy a couple of times. Seriously blows.

Lung Cancer I believe.
It definitely started with that. As I posted above, he was doing better, then succumbed this last Saturday. It wasn't actually the cancer that killed him, it was the body's reaction to it over time is the way I understand it.

As far as the business, time will tell, but he has a GM that has been running it for a while. Business as usual for now. Family trying to figure it all out :(

Family is a tight, and large group. There is support.
