Marcella was a dedicated nurse and friend to many at Holy Family Hosp. I was deeply saddened to learn of her passing. She will be remembered for the good times and "not so good" but always with a smile..Deepest sympathy to all the Edwards' family.

Marcella was a great friend to my mom and I. I have lots of fun memories of her while we worked at Holy Family together. Her family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Marcella cared for my patients for over 15 years starting in 1971. Not only my patients but also my wife when she delivered our youngest daughter, Kathryn, thirty-seven years ago.
Marcella is in our thoughts and prayers.
