Edward L. "Eddie" Pitman, 59 of Ellet passed away unexpectedly at his home on Monday, September 12, 2022. He was born in Buckhannon, WV on September 9, 1963, the son of the late Kent and Barbara {Ketchem} Pitman.

Eddie will always be loved by his sister Tami (Jeff) Morgan; nephews Jared (Meghan) Morgan and Josh (Miranda) Morgan; great-niece Ellie Morgan; several cousins in WV; aunt Karen (Tom Jodon) Cooper; many dear friends; kitties George and Miss Kitty.

In 1965, Eddie and his parents moved from WV to Brimfield, where he graduated from Field High School in 1981. He began his career as a truck driver, first with Blue Linx and then with Enterprise Plastics. Eddie was a very hard worker, and a very caring person. He followed his nephew's careers in football, basketball, track and cross country, and never missed a game or a meet. Eddie was a devoted son to his mother when their father passed away in 1992, and made sure she was always taken care of, and had a good life. He loved his family dearly, and was a great son, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew and most of all, a beloved friend. He will be deeply missed by so many.
