Edra was one of the sweetest, kindest, beautiful souls God ever put on this earth. I don't think I ever saw her without a smile. You will be greatly missed, but we will be together again as a family. Our Father in Heaven has seen to that. We love you, sweetheart. See you on the other side.

My heart is shattered to hear that Aunt Edra has passed. I will forever remember her kind words, her free spirit, and mostly her infectious laugh.

Spread your new angle wings Aunt Edra and soar the beautiful skies of Heaven!

We love you so much! Say hello to my Mom and the rest of the family up in Heaven.
