  1. We send our condolences to the family of Edna. She was “one of a kind”, very lively, & a great bridge player. We shall miss her very much & wish we had known her longer.

  2. I have not seen Edna for about a year since the last time we played bridge together. She was a remarkable lady.and had a well spent life. I was amazed at all the many friends she had at her age. I was fortunate to attend her 95th birthday when there must have been about 40 friends there.
