OBITUARY
“Into Heaven's Mansions she entered never to sigh or weep: After long years of dealing with life's struggles, Edder has fallen asleep. Angels throughout heaven will guide her, Jesus will still bless and keep her; not for the world, would we wake her Edder has fallen Asleep. Beautiful rest for the weary, well deserved rest for the true; when life's journey is ended we shall again be with you. This helps quiet our weeping for he gives to his beloved, beautiful sleep.”

“ It is written in John 14:1-3, Let not your heart be trouble ye believe in God,
believe also in me for in my father's house are many mansion:
if it were not so I would have told you; I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto
myself that where I am there ye maybe also.”
