Dear Cindy, Howard, Mike, Shauna and Ashley. No matter how old our parents or grandparents are when they leave us, it's a painful loss. Edna was a classy lady, a fashion statement and the proud owner of an incredibly decorated walker! Cindy, you were a loving and devoted daughter, always making sure she was so well cared for. We hope the sadness for everyone turns to smiles when reflecting on a lifetime of happy memories. Our heartfelt condolences. Judie & Stan
