Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. Wish we could be there with you at the services. Just know that we are thinking of you as you are thinking of our family going through the same grief and loss. Our mother’s were very special people and it was God’s plan to call them to be by his side just one day apart. He now has two more beautiful angels! Gary and Sandy Edman
