Taffy
Taffy is the symbol of the relationship between Eddie and his wife, Marguerite. It is their special thing that they share together. Every special occasion that they are together for involves taffy in some way including almost every birthday of Eddie's. Even when she is dead, Eddie still wishes more than anything that they could share one more bag of taffy together just like old times. The taffy is like their relationship flexible but always wanting to keep each other by their sides. They never want to part from each other and only after a great deal of force, a disease, are they parted from each other.
