Dee, your mother was a very special lady. She was a shining star at Stampadoodle where I met her. Our day was just not the same when Edna was not at the Wednesday demos. After such an active life I know the last couple of years after her stroke were hard for her. Regardless, she was a class act. A friend to many. RIP my friend.
