Yesterday we learned that Brian's mom passed away at 3:48 pm. Brian had just got all the arrangements made to finally transport her to Sidney hospital today. James, Brian's brother had seen her yesterday and she wasn't feeling as well as the weekend. Edna just slipped away quietly and quickly according to her doctor. I just wish we could have gotten her home like she wished before this happened, but God has other plans sometimes.
Edna has been like a mother to me, since my mom passed away in 1995. She has been a fighter and a rock to her family, even with numerous health concerns throughout her life. We had a special relationship that I will cherish for ever. It isn't every daughter-in-law that can be accepted and loved by her mother-in-law like the way Edna did. I will miss her tremendously!
Brian and I will travel to Sidney as soon as the funeral director can get her back home from Denver so we can help make arrangements for her funeral. The funeral will not be until after Christmas, but I will post the time when it is decided.
May you all enjoy your families' gatherings this holiday season! Our family will certainly be reminiscing Edna's attributes at ours.
