We read the notice belatedly. Edna and Lloyd were a fine couple and long-time friends of our parents, Jetze (Jay) and Anne Veldhuis of Clinton, later Goderich and Seaforth. We extend our sincere condolences to Lloyd and family and hope that good memories will ease the loss.

Even when someone we love has lived a long life, there is grief and sorrow when death comes. I will always remember Edna with a smile for all her fine qualities. Having lost a wife, I can relate somewhat to this kind of loss. But each grief journey is unique. Know that my heart and prayers are there for you as you embark on your&&single&&s.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Lloyd and Edna were wonderful neighbours when we lived across the street in Egmondville. Edna had a delightful sense of humour. Her boundless energy and spirit will long be remembered. It was a privilege to know her.

Edna was a good friend. She lit up the room with her smile. She always had a kind word and a gentle hug. Edna, you will be missed. You have made it home, congratulations.
