Rev. Monroe & Family,
During our years at Springfield, we can fondly recall the beautiful voice of your mother leading the Gospel Choir in a song. We truly enjoyed listening to her sing! She really ministered through her music, and was always warm and friendly.
We extend our prayers for comfort and strength, as we remember the wonderful Mrs. Magnolia Edwards and the Springfield family.

Sincerely,
The Pugh-Williams Family
