We're still loving and remembering you as being the best mother ever. It's amazing how much of life's lesson we grasped, to the point where we might be conversing and one of us will say " if Granny were here now this is the way she would have handled the situation " we really miss you so much, thank you, there was no mistake when God assigned you to be our Mother, since you left us Larry has joined you, God in all His infinite wisdom makes no mistakes, Larry made his 3 scores and 10 .
Your Children: Clifford, Martha, Ralph, Keith, Stanley and Sherrill

Our Dear Mother,
We will truly miss you, you gave birth to 12 children, it took a brave miraculous woman to rear 12 children, for the most part alone. Always there along with our Heavenly Father for every beck and call. We were blessed and just didn't realize that one day God would call you home, so rest in His loving arms you have earned it. With God's help we will meet again.
Love you Mama, your eldest daughter, Martha, Thank you !

We pray for the family and friends of Mrs. Helen Edwards. I always talk to her during my many visits while attending St. Luke R.E. Church. She was a great and kind lady. She always had a kind word. May God continue to ever Bless her family.

I´ve known Miss Helen my entire life. She was a force in our neighborhood of Jenkins Wood. Her love caring and guidance during my youth help to shape the man that I became. I was blessed to visit with her two years ago and listen to her recall and speak about how we played together in her yard as kids, she recalled every detail.

My deepest condolences to the Edwards family. You were blessed to have her in your life for so many years.

Elmore Wigfall and the entire Wigfall family

Helen was a remarkable, strong, beautiful, intelligent , and caring woman. She was an important part of our family's life for many years. We treasure the times we spent talking with her and absorbing her Godly wisdom. Her remarkable children are testimony to her awesome strength, selfless devotion, and boundless love. We are grateful that she had enough love to go around and was able to include us in her sheltering arms. Godspeed, dear Helen.
