Edwina, I would like to express my condolences to you on the passing of Mr. Barnes. He was a character and not easily forgotten. Working for him at the H.J. was an event to say the least. I wish you well.

Edwina and all the family, Y'all take care of each other. We'll be praying that little "moments of memories" will strengten you as you try to deal with Emmett's passing. One day, when you're going through heaven's gates, Edwina, don't be surprised to see Emmett's face light up and to hear him call out, "Edwina, get me a Tab and CC!" Weeping is best done 'together'. Come visit soon.
Judy and The Saint.

We remember Emmett's great sense of humor and gracious hospitality. We have soooo many memories of times shared in Macon, Sea Island and at Copplecrown in NH, over the past... ~ 30 years! Time is nothing when you have good memories that are full of life. Sending our love to you Edwina... feeling sad for this loss and hoping we'll see you soon.
