My prayers and thoughts are with you the family of Ms. Bobbie Edwards. I met Ms. About three decades ago. She has always had a beautiful smile on her face and kind heart. I remember when she use to wait table, at the Y-Not grill. I use to go buy my cigarettes there. And sit and have cup of coffee. She was the secretary for, the Pan African Club. That's when first actually met her. She will be missed, by everyone. Beautiful angle. RIP QUEEN ????
