I feel like there are no words that can really do justice to the man that Rusty was. I can say he is a hero to me. In the 5 short years I have know him I have found him to be one of the most generous, patient, loving, giving, funny, caring, selfless men I have ever known. As soon as Amy and I first started dating back in 2005, he treated me as if I were his own family from the start. 

I have so many fond memories of him such as the time he and I drove down to visit Anna at 5th grade camp. This was one of the only times I really got to spend some quality one on one time with him. We talked and laughed and told stories and ended up missing our exit and got a little lost. It is a memory and experince I am so glad to have. 

I truely feel honored to have known him and to be a part of his family. I have always looked up to him and will strive to be as kind, gentle, loving, caring, etc as he once was. You will be eternally missed, Rusty! 

Much love and respect,

Kerry A. Cripe

Eddie was the best! Not only just a friend, he was "Mr. Wizard" and "Mr Whoopie" to alot of us. You could always go to Ed for help. I wish I knew what he forgot. I still miss drinking that terrible old Fisher Body machine coffee with him while he enjoyed the menthol mints that came ouf the vending machine next to the coffee. He was a class act. I still quote him with some of us "Old Fisher Body People" as Eddie McCabe would say,
"Absolutely"

It seems like just yesterday when I worked with Ed instead of 10 years ago.  I will never forget what a determined, funny, considerate and smart man he was.  He taught me many things, and one of the most important was that work could be fun!  I was shocked by his passing, and will miss him dearly.

I'm so grateful to have known Ed these past 4 years.  He was always friendly and laughing!!  He will be missed greatly.

Eddie was an example to us all... quick to smile and even quicker to help. He was patient,and decent, he loved his family and his job. His "Edisms"  will last at Delta Plant for years. My sincere thanks go to the family for sharing Ed with us. 
I pray for your comfort

To the friends and family of Ed McCabe.  Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.  Ed was as fine a man as anyone of us would ever want to know.  His impact on us was profound not only because of his talent but because of his personality and the strength of his character. I enjoyed his company as a friend and co-worker and will miss him.

I had the priveledge of working with and around Ed for the last few years.  Eddie was more like a "Yoda" to several of us here that worked around him in that he was very wise and knowledgeable, and we always knew we could turn to him for advice.  He was a master at what he did.  He was also a trusted coworker and friend. I will miss him deeply and my prayers will be with his family.

Eddie was a great friend, he had a kind sole and was very considerate of others. He was also very patient and a natural teacher. His sense of humor was warm and genuine.He will be missed.

Eddie was probably one of the most unassuming, genuinely nice man that you would ever have the pleasure of knowing.  You will be missed and never forgotten by the people that really knew you.  My thoughts and prayers are with your family and loved ones.

Rusty was one of the sweetest, kindest people I was ever blessed to know.  Donna & Rusty raised 3 children who are an example of that sweetness.  My heart breaks for their loss and I will continue to pray for them and ask my church to pray for their comfort.
