I wanted all of you to know that my beloved friend Edna Comstock, for whom the Edna C. dahlia was bred by her husband, Paul Comstock, and named for her, has passed away.
She died today at 4:30PM, November17th, 2006. She was 94.
I am so seared with grief.
I was her caregiver for nearly 5 years.
The grief is so bad I don't know what to do. Right now is my first night without her.
Whenever you grow a dahlia, I hope you'll think of that dear lady, Edna Comstock.
My Edna C. ...

Sending prayers for Edna....
I'll bet she's just beaming down on you
right now looking at you with no pain or
achy gardening joints... and blessing your garden.

done this have entertained angels without realizing it.
