Eddie Maintenance is the main character in The 5 People You Meet in Heaven, by Mitch Albom. He is an old and squat man with a barrel chest, thick forearms, and a faded army tattoo on his right shoulder. He has a wounded knee and uses a cane to walk around. He works as the Head of Maintenance at Ruby Pier, and is great at his job. Eddie is slightly grumpy, and he doesn't like it when people call him Eddie Maintenance, but he has a big heart. I can tell that he cares because he shares his only 20 dollar bills with a coworker who is going on vacation with his wife. Although he has no patience for teenagers, Eddie loves little children, and will make them pipe cleaner animals and go on rides with them. He even gives his life for a young girl because she was going to get crushed by a falling roller coaster cart.
