Edward 'Eddie' Honeycutt, Jr.

Edward (Eddie) Honeycutt, Jr., age 59 of Crossville, TN, passed away on June 11, 2024, at his home surrounded by his loved ones.  Born July 29, 1964, he was the son of Lola Dean Davis Honeycutt and the late Edward Honeycutt, Sr.  He was of the Baptist faith and accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior while growing up.

Eddie lived most of his adult life in Abingdon and Bristol, VA, after he met the love of his life, Donna, who stole him away from TN to VA where they raised their children, their pride and joy.  They also owned and ran Country Boy Produce for over 20 years until Eddie got his Real Estate License and worked at Century 21 where he found a love for computer technology and worked at Alpha Natural Resources and AGC Glass while Donna chose a career in nursing.  Eddie loved the outdoors, riding the Creeper Trail in Abingdon and bass fishing on South Holston Lake, but fishing on Lake Chickamauga in Chattanooga was his favorite.  Eddie bled orange!  He was a Vol for life.

In addition to his father, Eddie was preceded in death by his grandmothers:  Elizabeth Honeycutt and Rose Davis; his father-in-law:  Jerry Finger; grandmothers-in-law:  Zelma Finger and Evelyn Burchfield.
