Eddie Darville dies, age 71

EDDIE Darville, 71, of Eastern Road, Nassau, died yesterday afternoon after having lunch with his wife at their residence.

“Eddie’s unexpected passing not only leaves an immense hole in the life of everyone who knew him as an unbelievable character, but also as an amazing leader in the community, sailing association, his beloved Long Island and his family and friends.

“He was an inspirational Bahamian, a true son of our Bahamaland, husband and father to his family,” said family friend Robert Carron, of The Tribune.

Eddie leaves behind his loving wife, Gladys, of 40 years, his son Kevin, 37, brother Chris, five sisters and a host of other relatives and family.

Funeral arrangements will be announced for next week.

The family has asked that, in lieu of flowers, anyone interested should give a donation to the Humane Society in his honour.
