Loved that guy. Met him a couple of years ago after a show. great guy, very down to earth. Did a lot for veterans as well. He laughed and actually signed a dollar bill for me.
I heard he used to be a policeman?

RIP! Liked his music and had started watching his current reality show just this year. Seemed like a great guy!

I'm not sure if he ever made to actual policeman, but he was in the academy. I think some of his family were officers though. This is just off the top of my head and I'm sure wiki will prove me wrong...lol

He had a great run of hit for a few years. I found his hits pretty catchy; not really my thing, but catchy, nonetheless.

Weird thing: The day he died, I woke up that morning and the first thing I thought was - "Eddie Money is dead". I checked my FB feed and sure enough, he had croaked. To be fair, I had read about his stage four cancer a couple of weeks before, but it was a little strange to have that thought, nonetheless.

Correct...^

He was never a "cop". He was a trainee, and a desk jockey...not a patrolman, or beat cop per se. It was still a noble attempt on his part though, even after later realizing he wasn't cut out for it.

Money had a great style where the song starts out slow then builds into a good rock ballad. Two of my favorites.
