Not sure what to say?

My prayers & condolences goes out to the family.

My condolences. Sorry for your loss.

Ms. Edwards' love toward her daughter Shawn, and grandchildren spoke volumes of the compassionate woman that she was. Her God given talents were shared with those that love her, and her legacy lives on.

What can I say is what I have asked myself? I happen to be thinking of Ms.Edwards and thought that I would type her name up to see if she was still living and when I saw this it broke my heart. I know so many of us feel that we was her favorite student(smile) and I am one of them(smile) She took me under her wings like a mom would her child. She took me to compete for all state choir and I made it every year. Chorus was my favorite class with my Favorite teacher. I remember her taking me to...

She taught me to sing. She taught me respect. Most of all she taught me it was ok to fail, as long as you learned from it. Goodbye, my dear teacher.

I am SO SORRY to hear about the passing of Ms. Edwards. I have been knowing her for many years. She was my music teacher at Mary Dora Coghill Elementary School. She gave me my first solo.

Sorry for your loss Shawn I'm praying for you and your family love you all

Singing in God's Choir of Angels now is the best chorus teacher ever! She had the gift of patience and true humility, so matter who the student was; she treated them all the same. Her family certainly should feels lots of love coming their way - because I know there are a lot of loving thoughts swirling around right now from all of us students. I was hers at OP Walker from '70-'73 and looked forward to that class everyday!

Ms. Edwards was loving and caring to her wonderful family. I witnessed her love for life through those that held her close to their hearts. She was always encouraging and proud of their accomplishments. Her love for education is demonstrated in her daughter and grandchildren's pursuits for higher education. They have utilized the talents that she cultivated and nourished. Your rest is deserved for the beautiful life that you lived and shared with those that love you. God's Blessing to...
