Lit a candle in memory of Margaret Rose Edwards
Nelson, Carleton, and Robin I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Margaret. She and Uncle Bill were some of my favorite people. I used to see alot of them when I was in Rocky Mount, particularly when they came into the bank(s) I worked for. I am sorry I wasn’t there for the funeral service yesterday. I hope you all are doing well. Grace and Julie are both well; Grace is in the 9th grade and involved in Cheering, Volleyball, and Track. She enjoys playing the guitar and singing. Julie is working in the local elementary school as a reading aide for kindergarden and first grade. God bless, and hope to see you soon. Leonard
