Bud, Carla and families, friends and neighbors,
Fern was my angel watching over me after a car accident many years ago. Now she is an angel watching over all of us. She joined my brother that we lost Jan 21, 2008. He also was born on a 6th day of February. Prayers with all of you.

Bud,Carla,Glady and families,
I just heard of Fern's passing. I am in shock. Fern was such a wonderful careing person. We stayed with them a few times when we came back visiting. My boys still remember going with Bud to feed the calf with a bottle. I am sorry I missed the funeral. Prayers and thoughts for all of you. I will be in touch.

Carla, Courtney & Family: I am so sorry to know of your loss of your mother and grandmother. I met Fern one time at Courtney's baby shower. She was such a lovely and happy lady. I am glad I had the chance to meet her. My prayers are with you all through this time and know Fern is in her well-deserved place in Heaven with God.

Carla and Uncle Bud, She is an exemplar of the ministry of the baptized. Her twin professions of faith and science will continue to serve her family and community, in the same way I watched your home steadily expand over the years. We remain in awe of the way, a few days after a reunion, she duplicated it at New Salem for our 1987 visit. What a remarkable "Child of Ruth Edwards" and a true Edwards Heir. RIP, Aunt Fern.
