Homer Edmiston
by Shelley Horner
I knew you were a special man the day I heard
Rosemary giggling on the phone while she was with us in
Daytona Beach, Florida. Rosemary was watching Christian
(then 1 year old), while we attended a big car race. I
thought, “this is a special man to Rosemary”!
Shortly after that, we met you. You were always so
kind to our family. You fit right in as the perfect puzzle
piece.
We enjoyed getting to know you over the years. We
will never forget the old cars, apple tree and apple pie,
stamp and money collections and of course, the two dollar
bills. The topper was the awesome trip to Alaska. It turned
out to be such a significant trip for us all. We will always
cherish those memories.
Lastly, I will always remember you most for reminding
us…“You know Jim and Shelley, those young boys are
the only thing that matter in life. They are the legacy you
leave behind”!
