May God's promise found in John 6:40, of the hope to see our loved ones again, comfort your heart and give you peace, strength, and hope in the days ahead.

Edgar was a patriarch of the community around Wilson Street. It was an honor to call him and Elsie friends and neighbors. I´ll be out of town for the services but will be with your family in spirit and prayer.
