My Mom (passed in 2021), Edna, & Wilda were the most fun ladies! The 3 Musketeers! We had brunch several years ago and I swear that was the most fun
I ever had listening to them reminisce. They all went to Hawaii for a real estate convention back in the late 80s. Wish I could find photos of that trip! Edna was so funny & her laugh was contagious! I’m sorry we can’t have brunch again. I hope Mom & Edna are laughing together in Heaven. I’m verry sorry for the loss of such a wonderful lady. Heaven is a better place with Edna & Mom. She & my Mom are missed very much!
Love,
Lisa Sullivan

I’ve lived next door to Edna for almost 9 years. . She’s been the best neighbor and friend. While many in our neighborhood shared the love of books with her, she and I shared notes on movies and shows on Netflix. She watched out for me and I her. In fact I received a message after she passed. Edna liked her blackberry wine but was not much a drinker and she’d comment on what I liked to drink. On 7/5 I typed up a grocery list which included a vodka. As I typed it in my phone kept auto correcting it to “Edna”. Is that a messaged or what. all of vest place will miss her friendship, her kindness and evenings on her stoop. ❤️
