Weʼve raised £5,000 to help name a Guide Dog Puppy in Eddie's memory
- Funded on Sunday, 1st November 2020

Story
Edward John (Eddie) 1958-2020
Eddie was a dedicated bus driver all his working life from the age of 21, started off on the old Routemaster buses and even drove the new ones and every type of bus in between. He had a big heart he was kind, funny, generous and adored his family and his 20yr old Jack Russell (Dizzy)
His family originated from Grenada and England where he was born and he grew up in Pimlico London. He will be sadly missed by all that knew him including his wider 'Bus' family, his partner of 16 years Tracey and their daughter 11yrs.
We would like any donations to go towards funding a Guide Dog Puppy named in his memory to watch it grow and develop as he had dogs all his life, and this would be a fitting tribute to the dedicated work of Guide dogs UK.

3 years agoHi Everyone, Here we are with another update. The puppy that all of you have donated towards is finally in training :D Its name is Buster. Eddie's daughter Clara chose this name because she wanted to acknowledge all the hard work he put into working on the busses. Buster is a black labrador and was born on the 2nd of December 2020. Thank you all again for your kind words and generous donations. Isn't Buster just adorable!
