Aunt Edna will truly be missed... She was a mother to many and known to always stand in the gap when needed without question. She was patient & kind & would set you straight if you needed it. My heart goes out to everyone connected to her because she most definitely made a mark in all our lives. A true definition of what a "woman" is made of, deeply rooted in our family tree. YOU WILL WEAR A CROWN & I'll see you when I get there. Love You Always❤️
