I knew Eddison from back in the 1950's when He helped my Dad on the farm.He was a joy to be around with never a dull moment

Dear family I just wanted to offer my condolences in the untimely passing of your beloved Eddison. Just remember dear friends when grief appears to have you in its clutch pray as never before. For relief will be felt when our heavenly Father answer your prayers-joy will replace grief and peace will take the place of anguish. Just know you and yours are thought of today with much love and concern in prayer. The apostle Paul gives words of encouragement at Hebrew 13:5 when he wrote of our Heavenly Father's love for families in the time of need.
