Edith Greenwell Memorial Contributions Benefit Christmas Wish

This beautiful soul has requested that expressions of sympathy take the form of donations to WBKR Christmas Wish. We're SO grateful, appreciative and thankful. 

Edith loved her family and friends. She enjoyed taking road trips. She also loved children, so it should come as no surprise that this beautiful soul has requested that expressions of sympathy take the form of donations to WBKR Christmas Wish. What a beautiful thing to do. I only wish I could thank Edith in person. She's gone much too young.

When someone dies it can be very difficult to know what you are supposed to do and we appreciate this amazing gift.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to her husband, Don, her children, grandchildren, siblings and friends. We pray that the hole in your hearts mend in the coming days, months and years. I know she'll be missed like crazy.
