Dear Megann,
This is Diane Rader O'Connor, daughter of June Rader, who was a dear friend of Edna's at the Hallmark. Edna and mom, along with Jackie and Tanya, had breakfast every day together there. Many times when I was visiting from my home on the west coast, I ate with them. Your mom was so helpful to me when I was serving on a cancer research panel. She was so smart, well-connected, and generous with her time. All of us had countless hours of conversation and laughter together which I treasure. Edna lives on in my heart, and I am so grateful I knew her!!
