He also leaves behind many nieces and nephews, all of whom he cherished.

Eddie was preceded in death by his parents, Charlie Grover Stevens, Jr. and Ethel Eloise Stevens, and by his brother and sister-in-law, Ronnie and Theresa Stevens. Jewell and Eddie remain eternally grateful for the many years they shared with a loving husband and devoted father.
