The family would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. Steve Staehling and his medical staff and to Dr. Taylor of St. Nicholas Hospital for helping Edna in her final days. Your support and thoughtfulness will be remembered forever. A personal thank you to Edna’s great-grandson, Nicholus Godfrey, who was instrumental in the care and support she needed the last several years of her life.
