Obituary
Edwin p. Stabins, m.D. Left this world on november 7, 2015, to join his best friend and the love of his life for 66 years, maxine “noonie” stabins. In full circle, as he provided so much compassion for so many others, he was blessed with a peaceful passing.
Eddie was born on september 30, 1919, in watertown, new york. He received both a ba from cornell university in 1941, and a doctor of medicine in 1944. Between his internship in salt lake city, utah, and his pediatric residency at the new york hospital, he served in the navy as a ltjg and a physician on the ship, uss benevolence, in tsingtao, china. Eddie and noonie married in 1949. Together they shared a joyful and fun- loving life in charleston, as he maintained an active pediatric practice. They later enjoyed 30 years of retirement in both fort lauderdale and longboat key, florida.
Their love for each other was only surpassed by their love for their three daughters and their families: nancy stabins ( ray) dodson, joan stabins (tony) edwards, debra stabins, grandchildren r. Scott dodson (kara mccallum), elizabeth dodson montgomery, samuel edwards-vu (hoai-mi edwards-vu ), elliot edwards (claudia gasiorek, fiancã©) , and great-grandchildren amelia montgomery and josephine dodson.
Those who were privileged to have met eddie knew that he truly lit up your life. His non-prejudicial passion for all of humankind was summed up by his words,” it’s not who you are, it’s how you treat others!” the family would like to give special thanks to eddie’s caregivers and lisa.

I Did Not Know Mr. Stabins But I Know How Hard It Can Be To Lose A Loved One In Death So I Wanted To Say I Am Very Sorry For Your Loss. The Scripture That Has Given Me Comfort At Times Like This Is The One Found At Revelation 21:4 That Says, “And He Will Wipe Out Every Tear From Their Eyes, And Death Will Be No More, Neither Will Mourning Nor Outcry Nor Pain Be Anymore. The Former Things Have Passed Away.” So God Has Promised That In The Very Near Future We Will Never Have To Experience The Pain Associated With Death Anymore. I Pray That This Gives The Family Some Comfort During This Difficult Time.

I Have Often Wondered What Happened To My Pediatrician Of Choice For My Three Children. He Was Unparalleled! Years Ago I Saw Him With His Family Eating At Bennigans In The Mall. I Went Over To Tell Him What He Had Meant To Us And Took His Time Relating A Cute Story About My Daughter Playing “Dr. Stabins” With A Stethoscope And How She Yelled “I Think You’Re Cute!” Down The Hall To Him When She Was About 4. The Entire Time I Talked, He Stood, Even Though His Lunch Was Getting Cold. He Was A True Gentleman!!
