We enjoyed working and knowing Edna at Macedonia Baptist Church. Aimee enjoyed her Chocolate Pudding that she shook in a jar with milk on Sunday when she was 3 yrs. old and in Edna’s Sunday School Class. She has come to church ever since and she is 30 now. We’ll miss her but the Lord gave her a birthday gift of his own, by taking her to his house on her birthday. Love, Jeanne
I remember Edna well. She and my Mother-in-law, Mary Dover Frisbee, were great friends. I enjoyed being around them because they always had such fun together. Edna was personality plus and my sympathy goes out to her family.
Dear Pauline, We were very sorry to hear about Edna. You both were so very nice to us when we lived across the street from you both in West Asheville. It was always nice to know that there was someone that knew us when we moved in! Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
