Our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you all, Mrs. Edna surely will be missed here in Millwood. She was the very first person to check in on us when my mom passed away. She had one of her delicious pound cakes, still very warm, for our family to enjoy. I never go by her home without looking at it and thinking of so many memories that have been shared with her and all the others that are now in heaven. Our love and prayers are with her family. Love, Sheryl & Chuck Belding
We are thinking of all of you with much love.

Gloria Morris and Rudy Tisdale, I am so sorry to hear about Mrs. Edna. I loved her very much and can remember so many good times at her home and with Rudy and Madge and little Rudy. I know that has been many years ago, but memories are hard to break. I am so sorry I did not hear about her death in time to go to the funeral. I just saw it in todays News paper. My love is with both of you and I hope to see you sometime when you are close to Kingstree. Rudy, I am 76 years old today and will be retiring from Nan Ya Plastics on July 1st of this year. I have worked here for 33 years on June 29th. Gloria I remember you so well and I will keep both of you and Rudy in my prayers. You know Rudy is my God-son or that’s what they told me any way. I remember staying with him while Madge worked at the old nursing home and keeping him. He was my precious little man and I will always love him. Just had to let you know I am thinking about both of you and your families too.
