Sorry for your loss Don,that is a big loss in ones life.
Edie was my roommate at I.U. We lived in the resident scholarship dorm, which was actually a converted World War II army barracks. Edie & I had the corner room at the end of the hall next to the outside door. If we could have had a nickel for every time we let one of the girls in “after hours” we would have been rich! Edie was always so very optimistic and positive. One of my favorite stories was about when it was raining and we had about a mile to walk into campus. Edie would say “Oh, won’t the rain make the flowers pretty!” May precious memories help you through this difficult time.
Don and Family, May God be with you and your family during this difficult time. A time of reflection of happier times, the happiness & laughter, you all shared. With deepest sympathy.
