Editor's Take: It’s as if Eddie’s Still There

As for her supporting cast members — and she likely won’t care for me calling them that since it’s truly an ensemble at the top — they’re all hers and Eddie’s family. Literally. OK, not in the maternal sense of the word, but that’s how Eddie, and now Lynda, treated everybody who worked at National Wholesale. And Lynda was sure to introduce me to virtually every member of that family, an extraordinarily close-knit group that still adheres to the mottos Eddie preached throughout his lengthy tenure.
