Edna was a very sweet woman whom I got to know thru her daughter Jackie. We spent time together playing cards once a week, going to the casino and putting puzzles together. I could kid here about everything and she´d just give it right back! She always had a little ditty or saying she´d come up with! Jackie was the best daughter to her! Always put her mom´s needs and desires before anything. Would write down notes to remind her when the Tigers or MSU or PURDUE basketball games were on tv so she could watch them. I never got to taste her cakes but she made some really neat eucalyptus Christmas trees and I bought one from her at a craft show! She also made me some ribbon bows for my stairway to decorate at Christmas that I still use! She was prettily crafty. Edna was a neat lady and I´ll miss her. Rest in peace Edna
