Thomas Edgar Trimble, “Captain Eddie”, died on Mar 31, 2025 from complications of a stroke he suffered a year ago. He was 78 years old. Eddie was born May 26, 1947 in Corinth to the late Bud Trimble and Martha Johnson Trimble. Even as a child, he was known for his huge smile, gregarious personality and keen sense of humor which led him to easily make friends with people from all walks of life. He was a graduate of Biggersville High School and studied automotive mechanics at Northeast Mississippi Community College. He spent his early adult years working in the trucking and boating industries and always had a calling to be near or on the water. Eddie worked many years as a service manager for marinas in Mississippi and Jacksonville, Florida. He also taught boating classes and started a yacht delivery business that took him and his wife June all over North America and Central America and the Caribbean Sea. He and June recently moved back from Miami, Florida to their cabin in Pickwick, Tennessee.
