To the family of Edna, what a wonderful woman. She was an absolute delightful lady to provide care for, actually to have a conversation with. She inspired so many with her motivation in keeping herself functional. Insisting on ambulating everyday. She rarely missed a day. She shared with the many of us here at Stafford the memories of her family. She truly was proud of all of you. She shared the happy tales and the sad ones, but in the end we all knew she loved you all. I would like to thank-you all for letting us have her here in our family and getting to know her. May you all find peace and joy in having had her in your lives as we did.
