My grandmother was a wonderful woman of faith and character. She knew how to laugh and tease even though she was at a point in her life where physical aches, financial limitations, and social differences can make one sour and bitter. She read her Bible every day and prayed consistently for her family and friends. She knew how to hold her temper and answer in a controlled manner. She was content and in her circumstances and was very thankful for even the little blessings that came into her life. I thank the Lord that he allowed us to live near (3 miles) her during the last year of her life so we could spend so much time together. I feel fortunate to be one of the five that can call her grandmother (although she had many other "adopted" grandchildren).
God Bless Grandma,
Todd
Edith was my sisterand I was very proud of her. Shewas able to budget her meager income and get most everything she needed. her income in 2006 was $15,000 which is pretty small. She had a house to keep up and a car. Clothes were not a problem she wore her old clothes. She read "Thru the Bible" by J. Vernon McGee about 4 times. And she tithed her income to her church. She was a unusual woman and will wear a large crown in Heaven. Brother Don
