Edmond Dwayne Eaddy, Sr. was born on April 23, 1979, in Florence, South Carolina. He was the son of Edward N. Cain and Cathy Eaddy. He departed this earthly life on Sunday, June 5, 2022. He received his high school diploma in 1997 from J.F. Webb High School in Oxford, NC. He completed his education at Winston Salem State University, where he met the love of his life, Dena Coston.

Without a doubt, Edmond was fiercely devoted to his family and friends. Pursuing a lifelong passion, he committed himself to being a dedicated coach and mentor to the youth in his community. He inspired his football teams to become amazing people and students, as well as talented athletes. During his 23 years at Best Buy, both as an employee and General Manager, he received many accolades and cultivated a positive work family that was clearly evident.

He truly had a heart of gold!

The life that he led was a testament to what he wanted to see in the world, a life of optimism, hope, joy, and love.
Though his time here on Earth has ended, his light will forever shine and his legacy lives on in his loving family, friends, mentees, coworkers, and even in strangers that were touched by the brilliance of all that was him.
