I've done my work, I've sung my song, I've done some good, I've done some wrong But I shall go where I belong The Lord has willed it so. He knows my heart and every thought, He knows what pain and joy I've brought; And by his love I shall be taught The way to Him I know. He knows my soul so weak and blind, So full of fears of mortal mind, And He will lead, and I shall find The way to Him I know He guides my steps, and He knows best, He will not harm where He is blest And so good-night, I take my rest, Where sweet wild lilacs grow.

There are many Tulsa area square dancers who knew and loved Edie and Bill. Together they were faithful to dance and support our hobby for as many years as I can remember. Edie was not one to stop dancing because she didn't have her partner anymore. She still came to dances and participated in any way she could. Many of us would point out to our families and friends that we know a lady who is her 90's and still dancing. She was our poster child for longevity. I know she was so much more to your family and that you will miss her dearly. I pray for comfort and peace for all of you. Elaine Cox

Larry and Leigh and families, I am saddened by the loss of your mother. We were neighbors on N. Santa Fe from summer of '64 to January of '69. I remember her hearty laugh and am thankful for the time we spent together. We still make many of her Christmas recipes! She was so proud of her boys and so sweet to mine. I am thankful she was in my life. Prayers of comfort for all of you. Charlotte Harvey Burton
