Edna was born June 11, 1931. She graduated from Enterprise High School in 1949. She loved the lord and cherished her family and friends. She was a loving and thoughtful person and will be sorely and fondly missed.
She was a lifelong member of First Baptist Church, baptized by Pastor Dr. Justice and she loved her church. We would like to thank our church very much for their prayers, help and visits. We also like to thank Day Springs Hospice for all they did and being there whenever we needed them. Their caregivers were truly a God send to us, especially Belinda Wilder and April DeOliveira. It is truly an honor to carry on the legacy of love she left us with and we know it will be a source of strength and comfort.
