IN MEMORIAM
O’NEAL EDGAR 11-4-51
Gone, but will never be forgotten. I can’t say gone too soon, because I know it was God’s doing that called you home.
Although it hurts and my heart feels heavy, I can’t complain.
There is not a moment or a day that goes by that I don’t think of you. I know that you are in a much better place, until we all meet again.
We miss you and love you. From: your wife, Jewel; and children, Yetta, Ayona and Demonteria; brother, Eddie Edgar; and grandchildren, Lebron, Keiayna, Antwan, Anthony, Cashtian, Damari- ous, Darien, Dayvien and the Pugh family.
