Mary Lowe Edmonds

Though unexpectedly, Mary joined God and her husband of 50 yeras, Bobby Lee Edmonds, in the early morning hours of July 9, 2011. Preceding her in death is her daughter, Rhonda Eggert Jones; her parents, Curtis and Inez Redding; and nephew, Craig Corlee.

Although a longtime resident of Florence, South Carolina, in latter years Mary timeshared in between her daughters' homes, Mary and Mike Alexander of Carrollton, Virginia, and Lee Anne Jenkins of Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. She is also survived by her son, Robert C. Edmonds; fourteen grandchildren; numerous great-grandchildren; as well as her beloved sister, Gail and Leonard Corlee; her brother, C.P. and Annie Ruth Redding; and five nephews and nieces.

We know Mary is 'rejoicing with the Lord' and imagine she will be eating honey buns, doing word searches, and listening to every sporting event with her transistor radio throughout eternity.

A graveside service will be held on Friday, July 15, 2011 at 11:00 a.m. at Florence National Cemetery, in Florence, South Carolina.

Memorials in Mary's honor may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Nemphis, Tennessee 38105, or online at www.StJude.org.
