May the Goddess guide her on her journey through the Summerlands. May her family and friends find Peace.

Blessed Be

The Edwards Family has requested that donations be made to The Wade Edwards Learing Lab in her honor. It is a non-profite organization founded as a memorial to the Edwards’ son, Wade, who died in 1996. The organization operates a free after school computer lab, sponsors scholarships and partners with other education organizations to provide greater services.

These graces have carried me through difficult times and they have brought more joy to the good times than I ever could have imagined.

The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered. We know that. And, yes, there are certainly times when we aren’t able to muster as much strength and patience as we would like. It’s called being human.

“But I have found that in the simple act of living with hope, and in the daily effort to have a positive impact in the world, the days I do have are made all the more meaningful and precious. And for that I am grateful. It isn’t possible to put into words the love and gratitude I feel to everyone who has and continues to support and inspire me every day. To you I simply say: you know.”
