Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear mother. It breaks our hearts when death separates us from our loved ones. At times like these comfort can be found in God's word. Isaiah 25:8 states, "He will swallow up death forever, and the sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces." May the he God of all comfort sustain you in his loving care as you cherish your most treasured memories in the days ahead.
We never had a chance to meet Mrs. Edna, but we sure heard a lot about her from Ardon. We know she meant so much to the family and know that she will be missed greatly. Ardon, you and your family our in our prayers. Let us know if we can help in anyway.
MS. Edna dated my great uncle, Mack Huddelston and quickly became one of the family. She was a dear friend to my grandmother, Robbie Hall and we all loved her very much. She was a sweet wonderful lady and we will miss her. Prayers of comfort to you all.
Eva so sorry in the loss of your mother. Prayers to you and your family
