Earth angel, Edna Birkholz has been called to join the heavenly hosts of angels. Mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, wife…she is steadfastly loved in all of her roles.
I got to know her during a time of deep concern over the probable loss of a second son to heart failure (after also losing her husband to heart failure). Prayerful best describes those times. Joyfully our concerns did not come to pass.
Edna had a special passion for ironing…everything, even T-shirts and jeans! At 93 she sparkled at her grandson’s wedding and beamed at his Master’s degree graduation last year. She lived independently up till the last weeks.
Deepest sympathy to Phillip, Pam, Claire and Jim
Your lives honor the love and devotion of Edna Birkholz.
