The Wake and Funeral of Poppy

John Joseph Edwards, Sr. March 30,1939 -Dec 24,2007


Its interesting what a funeral does for a family. I used to never attend funerals. I thought they were a waste of time and money. Gladly, as I've come to understand the plan of salvation, I attend and they're not as bleek as I once supposed. We will miss Poppy Edwards, yet we know we will see him again! He was remembered and honored by friends and loved ones just a few days ago.

John hasn't been all together with his family for many years....this is a pic of his sister, Lorri who lives in NY and brothers, Rich, Jimmy and Bob.

John was strong through all the services. His strength amazes me.
