    She had been afflicted with sugar diabetes, the effects of which she  died on the date mentioned above.  She endured her affliction and suffering with great patience.  All was done for her that loving hearts could possibly
have done by children, friends and Dr. Kouns, the attending physician. All efforts failed.  God called.  She had to go.  It was her time and turn to go.  When God calls, it means hands off.  Stand aside, let them pass  out; go on to their eternal reward.  Sister Edwards was well known in the community where she lived for many years.  She had many friends and was highly esteemed.
