Dear Mabel,Miriam,& Genevieve,

Upon being told that Harp had died today, (and as his first wife), my thoughts immediately were consumed with happier periods we shared, before, during and after our marriage. I hope he found the peace he sought so vigorously in words & deeds. [email protected]

Respectfully & with sympathy,

Mabel, Miriam, and Genevieve,

Percy and I are saddened to learn of George's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family during this difficult time. George would want us to rejoice. He was our family's comedian and gave us many happy moments. "Truly, you will weep and mourn over what is going to happen to me, but the world will rejoice. You will grieve, but your grief will suddenly turn to wonderful joy when you see me again." John 16:20 NLT

Love and sympathy.

Your cousins,
Percy and Doris Major Edwards
