I don't know what to say. Edna, you will always hold a special place in my heart. I have such wonderful memories of you and your entire family. You were my mom's best friend her entire life and the only peace I have from you leaving is that you are back with my parents, and George, Michael and Colleen. Please give them all a hug from me. Until we meet again. Love you Bill, Randi and Leslie. Bobbi Mosley
