I have known Mrs. Danner for many
years. She taught me in Sunday School when I was very young. She truly was a fine Christian lady. We were neighbors for many years and we enjoyed her friendship and were very close to her. I know she is at home with her Lord. May God's love fill the void that has been left in your
heart. May God bless.

It is with fond memories of Edna Danner long ago when as a young girl I came to work at the Natural Bridge gatehouse giftshop and got to know this lovely lady. May God comfort you and yours in the loss of your loved one.
