Eddie was born December 10th
1936 to Samuel & Bulah Erwin of Hugo, Oklahoma. Eddie grew
up in Hugo with his siblings; Roscoe, Autrey, Norma, Jo, and
Martha. Following in his big brothers footsteps, Eddie
enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1957. Eddie
completed Air Police Tech School then traveled the world as an
Air Force Security Police Specialist, spending years in places
like Okinawa, Korea, Canada, and Turkey. Eventually
assigned to a small radar base in Opheim, Montana in 1971, Eddie
met and fell in love with a “Sassy Little Opheim Girl” (His
Words).
In 1973, Eddie married Mildred
“Dolly” Isackson and her two children, Betty and Kennie Hallock.
Eddie and Dolly packed the family and moved to his next
assignment, Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. A few
short years later, Eddie and Dolly were surprised with an
unexpected addition to the family, Brian Ed Erwin. In
1977, Eddie retired from the Air Force and the family (Mom)
decided to move back to the Glasgow area and made it their home,
still to this day. Eddie retired again after working
another 20 years at Great Plains Lumber Yard. After
retirement, Eddie continued to enjoy life! Loving Fort
Peck, camping, fishing, woodworking and home projects.
Eddie loved his puppies, watching tennis, spending time with
friends and being harassed by his grandbabies
Eddie was preceded in death by his
parents and his five siblings. Eddie was survived by his
wife, Dolly, of 47 years, his four-legged companions, Charlie
and Hope, son Brian (Tierra) Erwin of Wolf Point, son Kennie (Jetra)
Hallock of Glendive, daughter Betty (Kevin) Lawrence of
Billings, Grandchildren, Samuel and Annika Erwin, Brodie and
Josie Hallock, and Aaron Dowell, a special sister-in-law,
Lorraine Archambeault, countless nieces, nephews, and many
countless friends all across the country, all whom he held close
to his heart.
