    I am very sorry to hear about Ms Edith. I met her when she was in JRMC in the early 1980's. I was a Nurse Aide on the floor where she was and we became friends. We have kept in touch through the years and I loved her. She sent me a card back in December when my husbsnd went home to Heaven.

    I know that there are no words to take away your pain. She was a very dear and sweet lady. I pray that the Lord blesses you and gives you strength through this difficult time.
