I always loved going to Edelman's and buying furniture from Howard Edelman....we lived in the same neighborhood and everytime he passed my house and I would be outside, he would honk and wave...I still remember his smiling face...I am so blessed to have counted him as a friend.

Our church has lost a longtime member and supporter. He was always there with a hand of friendship and often one "of those stories" he loved to tell. Prayers to his family.##imported-begin##Susie Daniel##imported-end##
Having known Howard and Isobell from the time I began attending Greggton United Methodist Church, the influence they had on my own service in the church in several capacities was only one of their ministries at GUMC. Howard's presence will be missed, but his spirit will speak to many of us in the congregation in many ways. God rest his soul as he reunites with Isobel, and bless Gayle's family and all the Edelmans.##imported-begin##Grace McKinney##imported-end##
