six are
living-- Fannie, Albert, John, Joseph, Maud and Annie. Also there
are
three step sons, Lewis, George, and Arthur. There are quite
a number
of grand and great grandchildren and many other relatives and
friends
to
mourn her departure.
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.
