Dear Clayt and all of your children,
Memories make a life, and our families made some wonderful ones. We all remember the late summer softball games together, cold lemonade, sticky buns, and our connection with Morgan horses. Mary and I were with family in Colorado and we heard the news when we returned. Our prayers to all of you. What a wonderful wife, mom, and person. May Edna's peace be also ours.

Dear Clayton, Kent and family,
Please accept my deepest condolences at Edna's passing. What a wonderful lady she was. I remember back to the early '70's, when I was a new teacher at Pavilion and how very kind she was to me. I consider myself lucky to have known her and treasure the memories of all the times we spent at the kitchen table just talking.
Know that all of you will be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
