I would like to add my condolences to Mrs. Edwards-George's family and friends. Unfortunately, this sting that death leaves is something all too common to mankind today. But we do have a future to look forward to where death will not exist. At Isaiah 25:8, God says he will "swallow up death forever" and "wipe away tears from all faces." How wonderful those promises are, and soon they will be fulfilled.

My dear friend of the past, the stay overs, dancing in front of you and Lorna's bedroom full length mirror. Our carnivals we did for Muscular Dystrophy. Later in our lives we found each other again my friend. I am so so fortunate to have found you again. We never did get that ride. Knees to the breeze my sister. I was never so lucky to have a friend like you. Prayers to George, BJ, the girls, Lorna. Godspeed Laurie, catch you on the other side.

I will miss you my friend. What a beautiful, kind and generous person you have always been. The world has definitely lost a shining star - we are all so much better after having you touch our lives. Peace be with you all.
