Description | He was the affable bald guy with the smile, the quick wit, the practical joke. But he was more than that.
A grocer first, Eddie Basha always enjoyed mingling with employees and customers at his family’s stores.
A humanitarian, he donated millions to charitable causes and helped countless others quietly and anonymously. An advocate for public education, he was a fierce competitor in the political arena. A businessman who stood up for equal rights, he was a proud collector of contemporary Native American and Western art. |
