my mom.
** The obituary in the Ephrata Review was sent in by a neighbor from where she lived in Alaska and most of it is incorrect except for her husbands and son.**
Mom was born Margaret Arlene Edwards in Manheim Lancaster county and moved to Ephrata when she was a toddler. Enid lived in Yuma and my name is wrong in the obit but I lived in Delaware. Obituaries are only as good as the stranger (or family)writing them.
Baptized Margaret Arlene Edwards.
