Remembering Eddie Hunt

Eddie Hunt, a familiar figure in the neighborhood who worked in East Village bars such as the Coal Yard and the International, died last Saturday of an apparent heart attack. He was 54.

Tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 2 p.m., Eddie's friends are gathering at Manitoba's, 99 Avenue B between Sixth Street and Seventh Street, for a tribute party.

    He was a great guy, I'm proud to have called him a friend. Tough as nails, a martial arts expert / teacher with a heart of gold who died much too young.
