I found Edra's picture at Thomas and Cynthia's wedding.
Our dear friend and neighbor Edra Bunn passed away on July 25th. She was a good friend to my children and to us. When I couldn't find Sara or Thomas, I knew I could go to Edra's and they would be visiting her. She was a good sister to Karen and a wonderful Aunt to Jon. She was my counselor in Primary and I learned a lot from her. It was Edra who, when I was fretting that someone hadn't done what they were supposed to who told me, "Cathy, not everyone is like you." Sounds obvious, but it was an epiphany for me. I suddenly realized that others have strong points that I don't have, and instead of expecting them to be like me, I should appreciate their differences. I found Edra's picture at Thomas and Cynthia's wedding. I will also put a few pictures of my kids at Edra's. We love and miss her very much!

I'm sure she's aware that you love her then and now. If she's like my mom, it might be better to remember her in your heart's eye than with a picture anyway. The beauty of our religion is we know we will see her again. She and your kids can play together eternally. Love to you.
Thanks, I appreciate the comment!
