  1. Glendale ArizonaI was a classmate and friend of Sharon, and I have good memories of fun times at the farm. I’m sorry to hear of Lynn’s passing, and now Edna has “changed addresses” too. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May you know the Heavenly Father’s peace and comfort during this difficult time of transition.

  3. Enid OKI’m sorry to hear of Edna’s passing. I have fond memories of time spent on the farm with Ann. Edna was always in the kitchen preparing food for all of the kids Ann had invited to spend the night. In later years I enjoyed a few talks with her while visiting my own mother in the Hillsboro Assisted Living Center. I was surprised she remembered me as she brought up the times I had spent with Ann. She always seemed to wear a smile, and she was a pleasant lady to visit.
