Edwin "Eddie" L. Edmonson, 70, of Lyons, formerly of Linton, passed away on August 7, 2026. Born June 22, 1956, at Freeman Greene County General Hospital in Linton, Eddie was the son of Carlos and Georgianna (Geatches) Edmonson. To those who knew him, he was simply Eddie or Ed - and chances are, if you were from Linton, you knew him. Eddie had a larger-than-life presence: jovial, outgoing, always ready with a story, a laugh, and a cold Miller Lite. He never met a stranger, treasured the friendships he made, and had a way of making every gathering a little more lively. His longtime friendship with Dave Fish was especially meaningful to him. A graduate of Linton-Stockton High School, Eddie worked for Coca-Cola before beginning a long career with the City of Linton, where he retired after many years of service. He loved his community and spent much of his life involved in the organizations and people that made Linton feel like home. Eddie was a proud 47-year member of B.P.O. Linton Elks Lodge #866, serving at one time as Exalted Ruler. He was also a member of the Sons of the American Legion Post #22, VFW Auxiliary Post #7118, and the Moose Lodge, all in Linton. The Elks and these organizations were more than memberships to Eddie; they were places to gather with friends, share stories, lend support, and enjoy life. He was a devoted fan of IU football and basketball, loved music, especially that of Elvis, and in his younger years enjoyed boating and waterskiing. Eddie lived life fully and on his own terms, embracing its joys, navigating its challenges, and leaving behind memories that will be shared for years to come. Above all, he loved his family deeply and will be remembered for his big heart, his unforgettable personality, and the countless laughs and good times he gave to others. Eddie is survived by his daughters, Shannon (Rob) Curry and Erica (John "B.J.") Smith; grandchildren, Madison (Garrett) Hedge, Payton Curry, and Juniper Smith; great-grandson, Rowan Hedge; and siblings, Marilyn Rogers, Teresa (Raymond) Graham, Steven Edmonson, Rick Edmonson, and Rebecca "Becky" (Larry) Williams. He was preceded in death by his parents; and brothers, Carlos "Shep" Edmonson, Jr. and Daniel Geatches. A celebration of Eddie's life will be held at the Linton Elks on Thursday, August 13, 2026, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., with a time for family and friends to share memories beginning at 5:30 p.m. Arrangements are in care of Welch & Cornett Funeral Home in Linton, of Walton Funeral Service. Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.welchcornett.com.
