With sadness, I am posting this e-mail from Eddie's friend Tim to all of you. Eddie is a legendary local surf rock musician. From my half hour talk with Eddie, I was left with an impression of a kind, unassuming person.
"Back in Oct 2008 (Post link) you posted a blog about long time PV resident Eddie Bertrand. Unfortunately, Eddie has terminal cancer and only has a few has days left. I was hoping you could share this in your blog.
Those wishing to send their thoughts to Eddie may do so at eddieandtheshowmen@yahoo.com. All emails will be read to Eddie and placed in a book for the family.
Here is a link to one of Eddie's Last Live Performance."

I hope his final days are peaceful, spent in the company of friends and family, affording him a last memory of love.
People who bring music into our lives deserve a special place in heaven.
Eddie passed away on October 27, 2012 at 9:10. He is now performing with the greatest band in history.
A tribute to Eddie.

That is sad. I got here a little to late but I did see his performance on U-Tube. Wow, serious surf rock. A south Bay legend. Probably listened to a Bukowski reading or two. RIP
