Edna was the daughter of John H. and Edna (Messinger) McMahon.
She attended a one-room schoolhouse in East Sullivan for the first eight years of her education, and graduated from Keene High School in 1933.
On April 26, 1935, Edna married Stanley D. Lugg in a candlelit service at the home of her Aunt Edith Davis in Stoddard. She moved into her husband's family home, built by his father, John Lugg, in Concord, where she lived for 71 years until her death.
Edna became a member of The First Congregational Church in Concord in 1937 with the first group to join the church after it was rebuilt from a fire in 1935.
She was active in many church activities, as a Sunday School teacher, leader of the Beyer Group, president of the Women's Guild and president of the Never Idle Circle of the International Order of the King's Daughters and Sons. She also helped prepare many church suppers and worked on the annual church fair.
She enjoyed needlework, reading and poetry, and had a verse for every occasion, from a nursery rhyme to Shakespeare. She also enjoyed traveling the Maine coast and Cape Cod, discovering lighthouses along the way.
Most of all, she relished activities and celebrations with her family.
Edna was predeceased by her husband, Stanley D. Lugg, in 1993; her parents; her two brothers, John H. and Aubrey McMahon; her sister, Mary Dorothy Tacy; and her son-in-law, Howard N. Smith.
Surviving family members include her two daughters, Sheila A. Lugg and Janet L. Smith, both of Concord; two sons, Stanley F. Lugg of Loudon and Alan D. Lugg of Epsom; and nine grandchildren, Alan R., David J., Donald A. and Sandra A. Smith; Alan D. and Katherine L. Lugg; Leslie A. Sherman, Lisa A. Avery and Lani A. Lugg. She is also survived by eight great-grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
