My dear Aunt Edith,
So many memories of you! The ones I hold dear to me is when Johnny and I would come visit you and Uncle REX in Colorado Springs. We always went to Guippies for lunch. You always made me laugh, especially when you would get on Uncle Rex. You were were always a joy to visit with. Rest in peace my sweet sweet women!

Sweet Grandma. You were such a beautiful soul. "Beauty is only skin deep" as you would often say. You showed nothing but grace and love throughout my life. I will miss you forever more.
