Dana and family,
Many of your fans and customers did not know of your loss until last week when we entered the World's Best Car Show/Auction at Kissimmee. We are so sorry for your loss but your Dad/Granddad has to be so proud of all of you for another wonderful performance, albeit following such a sad event. Our thoughts and prayers go with you all.

Eddie used to dance and sing (made-up songs) down the steps in his PJ's at Tullocks Woods. What a stitch, always a sense of humor. And he told the best jokes ever. He made cute nicknames for many, i.e. "Megan Brown."
He was a good cook and hosted great feasts, and breaking bread with Edward and Shirley was a joy. He always had a story to share and energy, excitement and love for people, life and yes, cars.
Edward the generous optimist was tremendously good to us and for us - such a blessing. Growing up and growing old with Eddie and Shirley has been an awesome adventure. He will be dearly missed, but the memories treasured.
Much Love and God Speed!

Mr. Mecum (as I called him) will always have a special place in my heart. He and my dad had such a great friendship. I always looked forward to purchasing a car from him because he took his time to talk to me and inquire about my family. His generosity with sponsoring the "Mecum" American Legion baseball teams that my Dad coached, was one of the highlights of my family's life! I can only imagine our fathers together again in heaven.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

It was a great blessing to have Eddie Mecum as my dear friend for over 40 years.

The two men I have admired most in my life were my father and Eddie. I will miss him more than I can possibly explain.

He was, and always will be in my mind, a great man.
