Ms. Edna will be missed, she was a good and faithful servant to God, her family/friends and the community. She was a dedicated worker for New Bethel Church. I remember her as an usher at New Bethel Church and often cooking in the basement working with Ms. Selena, Ms. Mable to name a few and some of the other regulars. She was the best cook ever, my mom Nadine often had her prepare food for our family and she made the Best Corn Pone! My condolences to her family, she meant the world to my mom and I know she's gone on to Glory reminiscing and looking down on us, may she Rest in Peace.

My deepest of sympathy. Edna was very special in her own way. She was a very independent person. Her standing waiting too go to town or just to story sometimes I just she went just to have someone to talk too. Much love to all.
