Our friend USMmmm from Eagle Post passed into glory late Friday night. He was a great Southern Miss supporter and a man who lived his interesting life in full. He was quick to debate and argue and was usually right. He was a preacher without a pulpit and an example for us all to follow. They don't make many like him. Godspeed and well done, old padnah.

Agreed. Loved the school. Loved the south. He was always entertaining.

Saw this on BGN. Sad to see this. RIP.

Damn. Hate to hear this. I had many an argument with him on EP. Learned something every time.

I am disappointed to read this one. Edd was a fine gentleman. I always enjoyed his tailgate visits and internet banter. He will be missed by me and many, many others.

Ace...

I had many a internet debate with him, but was close friends with him. RIP old friend.

a tip o' the cup to the fan and the man!!!!

Arrangements
Visitation at Ott and Lee (Brandon) Monday 6-8
Graveside service at Roseland Cemetery (Hattiesburg) at 11:30 with reception to follow in the Fellowship Hall at Bay Street Presbyterian 12:30-1:30

This breaks my heart. I loved that guy. He was comfortable & competent talking about most any topic under the sun. A lot of what I know about Southern Miss' history prior to my arrival on campus, I learned from him.

Rest in peace, Edd. I'll be raising a glass to you at the first home football game.

I'm guessing he'd not been in good health for a while. I wondered why I had not seen him around. I spoke with him on a couple of occasions at the EP tailgate during the Fedora days, seemed like a good guy. Had some debates with him on EP as well. May the Lord bless his soul.

That hurts. Thanks for being a great friend, Edd.

Sad to hear that, had quite a few interesting convos with the man on EP. May the Lord be with him and his family.

So sad to hear about Edd's passing. Had a lot of great constrains with him along the years. I hope his family can find some peace during this time.

That's how everyone in H'burg knows him (although his Dad was a popular minister)....he was a news anchor at W-DAMN for years....on the other hand, the Jussley brothers were always well-known because their ages were so spread out, therefore the brothers practically went to school with everyone!

Long time Eagle Club member - Edd Jussely passed away Friday, March 17th. Edd was an engaging personality who always had time to talk about Southern Miss sports.

He also served as the public relations and affairs spokesperson for MS Highway Safety Patrol and MP&L (Entergy).
