~ Burney L. Eaddy ~

The Lord has called home one of his Angels, Burney Eaddy. He was born on March 13, 1943, in Marion County, S.C. to the late Burnie Eaddy and Susie Rogers Eaddy. He entered eternity on March 30, 2023 at the Oak View Nursing Home, in Conway, S.C. 

Burney was preceded in death by his sisters: Catherine Chitty, Idella Gause, Alfer Mae Stackhouse, and Irene Davis. One sister-in-law Johnnie Mae Eaddy. Brothers; Kizell Graves, Ernest “Red” Eaddy, Monroe Eaddy, Marvin Eaddy and Tommy Lee Eaddy. He was the last living sibling.

He leaves to cherish his memories one Aunt, Mrs. Lula Rogers, Sister in Laws, Lurrie Dean Eaddy, Petina Belin, special Nieces Martha Bacchus, Doris Hammond and a host of other nieces, and nephews.  Special friends: Ernest Legette, The staff of Britton’s Neck Grocery, The staff of Park-N-Blow, and Mr. & Mrs. James Montgomery & sons.  He was under the loving care of his aunt Lula Rogers for decades until her health failed. Subsequently, Ella Barr and Lorine Woodberry continued to provide the tender loving care that he was accustomed to receiving.

Burney was lovingly adopted into the family of Jamie and Renee Montgomery of Britton’s Neck for the past 19 years. Regardless of bloodline, he was a treasured member of the Montgomery family. He possessed a special bond with their children, Tanner, Koby and McKenzie.  His absence in their family will leave a void that cannot be filled but his memory will be cherished forever.

Burney was a kind, humble and gentle man who left an impact wherever he went.  Burney would always greet you with a smile, never met a stranger and considered himself a friend to everyone.  To know Burney was to love and admire him particularly as he navigated his way through life.   Burney had a passion for the racetrack and seeing cars race at their highest speed while enjoying time with family and friends. Burney developed and cultivated many relationships over the years and created lifelong friends who were always willing to go the extra mile for him as he would do for them.  Through it all, Burney kept his faith in the Lord and was a loyal member of Red Hill Missionary Baptist Church. Burney loved praising the Lord and was an active member of the church choir. All will miss Burney’s warm smile and kind, gentle ways. 

The community mourns his loss but celebrates his homegoing, because Burney is now free!
