William M. Edgeman

To the Edgeman Family,
My first memory of Bill is seeing Bill and Tiger dancing while I was singing in the Nite Life Band at the Holiday Inn over 25 years ago. I don't think I ever saw one of them without the other one being nearby. They had the kind of devotion for each other that is only written about in romance novels and that very few ever realize.
I can't think of Bill without seeing Tiger or Tiger without picturing Bill.
A wonderful compliment to give to anyone.
I would see them daily at lunch at the Madison County Shrine Club and tease Tiger about never cooking for Bill.
I remember Tiger's birthday being Halloween and they were always out celebrating. Bill was such a kind man and you could see the love he had for Tiger just by looking at him.
I know this is Bill's guestbook, but anything I could write about him would have her name in the message. AND--he would want it that way, expect it to be that way and nothing would make him happier.
Thanks Bill and Tiger. You set the bar for the rest--and we were all watching.
To the Edgeman family, my thoughts are with you.

To the Edgeman Family,
My family's thoughts and prayers are with you all, and I wish I could be there for you. My mother (Betty Edgeman Turner) always told me I was named after 3 great men. William, (my Uncle Bill) Lawrence (my Grandfather, Uncle Bill's Father) and Turner (my Dad Delbert) I've always tried to remember that, and tried to live up to those 3 Great men. I'm glad that my family, Wife and Daughters got to know my Uncle Bill better, if ever so briefly the last couple years at the Edgeman Family Reunions in 08/09. I know we will all miss and love him. May we all meet again in Heaven.
Bill, Chris, Melissa, Amanda Turner

To Joel and family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Your Dad was always nice to me when I came over to play as a kid. When I wanted to check that I had Joe's correct email address a few years ago, I remember going over to see him and he was very engaging and invited me in to chat for a while. I can't recall if it was plates or spoons or what exactly, but he spent some time showing me the collectibles your Mom had accumulated on the dining room walls. I could tell that he was fond of her and missed her a lot. So I am sure he is happy now to be with her again.

Bruce & Vickie:

It has been a long time since we have seen you but have never forgotten you. Wanted you to know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We will not be able to be with you as Richard suffered a stroke on 12-1-09 and is still going through thereapy. I know you will miss your dad but memories are what brings us together.

Richard & Carol

To The Edgeman Family:
We met your father and mother many years ago - on a dance floor. We also spent many good times with them at the Madison County Shrine Club.
They were always so happy and loved to have fun and be together.
We believe they are "dancing again."
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your dad will be missed.

To Kristie and family,
We regret we can not be there with you at this difficult time. Your Dad was such a kind man. We know how much you will miss him.

To The Edgeman Family-Many of us remember Bill as a hard working, optimistic, fun-loving person. His many deeds and good works will be missed.

We offer our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
