Dora and family.
Please accept our sincere condolences for your loss. Bro. Bill was a true brother in Christ, and served his Lord for so many years. He is now out of the pain he suffered for so long, and with his Lord. Mary and I will keep you and all your family in our prayers. May God bless you during your time of grief.
To the Edmondson family, I recently read of the death of your loved one. Although we are not acquainted, please accept my sincere condolences. At 2 Corinthians 1:3, the Bible calls our Heavenly Father ‘..the God of all comfort.’ That Bible verse indicates that God can help His faithful servants to endure any problem or challenge that we may face. At John 5:28, 29 Jesus assures us that we will have the opportunity to be reunited with our loved ones in the resurrection. There Jesus says in part: ‘ …all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice… and come out.’ Until then, may the memories of your dear loved one strengthen you as the days progress toward the soon to be resurrection.

To Dora and all the Edmondson family we at WNC Communities send our deepest condolences in the death of our good friend and strong supporter. Bill was an unshelfish giver of time, talent and wisdom as he provided leadership and support to folks in WNC through community and agriculture programs. His contribution will be recognized for years to come. He will be sorely missed. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family during you time of loss! God bless you!
Dear Dora and all of Bill’s Family. Please know thar Buddy and I send our sincerest sympathy. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. I worked with Bill in the Commercial Exhibits Office of The Mountain State Fair.. I retired in 2003.
