I am just now learning at this late time of the passing of what was an absolutely splendid man; somebody who always made you feel as if you were the center of the conversation, the center of his attention, the most important person in the room at that moment. Admittedly I only met Eddy several times as I was a friend and professional colleague of his son Malcolm who is another person with whom I hold a very deep respect for as he stood by me in some very dark moments in my past indeed when many others had fled to the hills. This sort of character is not something that's just spontaneous or just comes from nowhere, this sort of character was passed down to him by Eddy, and it's truly a rare gift and not one which the vast majority of us share. Eddy, I thank you for passing this along to Malcolm because it touched me in such a profound manner.
You will be missed but know this, you survive in your progeny and in this way you will go on continuing to touch and to shape the world in ways in which you never could have imagined. Farewell, gentle soul, and may you truly rest in peace.

On behalf of The Mackie Family we would like to extend our deepest condolences to you Kathleen and all of Eddy’s family. Due to family commitments and health issues we were unable to attend today. Eddy was a valued friend to our father Norman who enjoyed his company and musical talents on more than one occasion . His visits with Kathleen were very special to us. He was larger than life and had a heart of gold. He will be missed… my youngest son Cory at 4 yrs old affectionately referred to him as Eddy (Buck)Rodgers which gave us all a laugh. So we will affectionately always remember him as that. RIP Eddy and thank you

Angus and I spent many summers camped at Eddy’s We were always warmly welcomed and had the run of his cottage. I used to cut Angus’s hair ,so one day , seeing this Eddy asked me to cut his . I don’t think I was ever so nervous around him , at that point he wore a baseball cap and had a beautiful fringe of dark curls I was so afraid I’d ruin those curls, but he was reassuring, so I proceeded to give him a trim He seemed pleased but never asked again !

Our Sincere Condolences to All of Eddy's Family! I have many fond memories of Eddy; he was such a Character with a Kindhearted Soul! A little memory comes to mind of one evening Eddy came to supper at George and Bev's. I had decided to change up the apple pie we were having for dessert and added cranberries to it. Eddy said; "What a shame to ruin a good apple pie by putting cranberries in it!" haha Big Hugs Kathleen, Suzanne and John, Malcolm and Barbara and to all The Rodgers Clan!

Dear Eddie was so passionate about the fiddle and to pass the gift onto our youth here in Guysborough Interval. Our son , age 8 was fortunate to have Eddie instruct him. One day Eddie explained that he had to put Brian in the washroom, sit on the toilet to practise as it was the only way he could keep him from chatting to his fellow fiddler students! Whatever it took to encourage fiddling, Eddie pulled it off! Eddie will be missed, what a wonderful human!
