I visited Eddie's grave  in Beechwood Cemetery, Ottawa.   Eddie came to me in a dream, locked in the Sanatorium before I knew he existed. The next day following the dream, I learned of Eddie through research. The photos of him on his horse upset me to this day. It is as if Eddie is still trying to tell me something.  I learned in May of 2019 that Eddie's dad probably died in January 1924 of TB.   Eddie's mom, Catherine Julia Thompson Chugg cared for several Parkbeg folks who dies of TB in the Chugg home. At this time the medicines were not available to save these family members.  God bless you, Eddie and Charlie.
