Mr. Jack. Al, and Bill, I was so sorry to read about Ms. Judy’s passing. She was a beautiful, kind and very likable lady. I had the pleasure of being one of the students she substituted for several times and I was always glad to see her kind and smiling face. She will be missed and once again I a sorry for your loss.
Al and Lill, I’m very sorry to hear about Al’s mother’s death. I never had the pleasure of meeting her, but knowing what good people you all are, I’m sure she was a very special lady. I hope your Dad is doing okay. Your family will be in our thoughts, friends. ~Lisa and Jeff

I am so very sorry for your loss of this very kind and precious lady. I will miss her smile as I walk past her room. I will also miss her husband’s frequent “window” visits just to talk to her.
Al and Lill,
We are thinking of you and your family in this time of loss.

To Mr. Jack Edwards and Son Mr. Bill Edwards and the rest of the family.
God chose to let my life be Touched and Blessed by the both of you and especially A Sweet Lady Mrs. Edwards, as I visited with my Grandmother Mrs. Helen Scott at Kingstree. I felt the love displayed as I
walked into the room as Mrs. Edwards smiled and would greet me on my visits.
I Pray God will wrap His Loving arms around each of you at this time and in the months to come.
May each of you feel Peace and Comfort!
Thank God For Such A Sweet Family! God Bless Each of You!
