With both of us having worked with Sara we have heard many heart warming stories about her Grandmother. We never met Edna but know she was a very important part of Sara’s life and will be greatly missed. It blesses our heart to know that she loved the Lord and is now safely home with Him. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sara and the family that soon the sadness will be replaced by the joy of the memories you have of your mother, grandmother and great grandmother.
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Having been Sara’s friend so many years, I have met her grandmother on several occasions. She was definitely full of life and love for her family. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless.

I am so sorry to hear of her passing.
What an amazing legacy Edna left with her family and all the other lives touched by her love.
Our thoughts & prayers are with you all in this time of sorrow.
