So sorry to read of the passing of such a sweet lady, I used to work with her for a few year at the Country Inn. I looked forward to the mornings that the girls all would come & take their breaks in the hotel lobby, I loved to sit & just listen to her & Josie talk & joke with each other, they were both so funny. Sad to know the world loss
Such a sweet person. My prayers & thoughts are with the entire family at this difficult time.

I have many memories of Edna from my childhood, my grandma and Edna were neighbors back some years, they looked out for each other. I remember taking my grandma out to her place a few years ago to have a visit with her not too long before she had moved out, and that was the last time I recall seeing her. Edna loved her little poodle Shasta! and I remember how she said she lost her baby when Shasta died. I remember helping her with stuff outside when I was at my grandma's, she was nice lady to know. Praying for the family of Edna.
