Eddy was born in St James’s hospital on 29 March 1949. Eddy had a large family who’s parents
were Johnny and Annie. Eddy had two sisters, Beryl and Ivy and six brothers: Tommy, Barry, Johnny,
David, Paul and Michael. Eddy was married to Georgina Penfold for more than forty years with
children Sally and myself (Martin), and three grandchildren, Kerry, Lindsey and Billy.
Eddy loved and cherished us all and would always be there for anybody who needed help, Family,
friends, neighbors’. If any of family or friends needed furniture moved, Eddy would come along
with his truck, sometimes would bring myself for extra hand.

Eddy loved his horseracing, and on Saturdays would be watching racing shouting at the horses on
television , swearing if the horse would be falling behind. He had a few horses that he had
followed, chasing his losing bets, one of them `love legend`.
Eddy had a colorful working career, starting early as a young boy working in Wood yard for George
Penfold ( Georgina’s father). More jobs followed :heating engineer, demolition, and roofing,
working along with family and friends. I myself (martin) had worked with Eddy (dad) whilst still at
school in holiday periods. Dad would go to demolition sites and buy bricks, slates, lead etc, and
then sell them to building supplies for best price negotiable. I had enjoyed working with dad in
those days.

I could go and on about the activities that Eddy and his dad, brothers and friends got up to over
the years, write a novel, sure it will be a best seller!
But in all honesty, Eddy was the most generous person I’ve ever known, the real genuine article,
you would have to go along way to find another person like my dad Eddy Gurney,
And will be sadly missed by us all.

Farewell Eddy (dad). God bless you.
