Edna Marie Arant

Jacksonville, Florida formerly of Okeechobee and West Palm Beach, Florida

She was predeceased by her husband of 25 years John R. Arant, Larry Frady of 35 Years, Angie Lawson, her sister, Mary Frances, her mother, Mary Frances her daughter and Lil Lewie Huggins, Jr. her grandson.

She is survived by her three children: her daughter Crystal Arant Huggins (Lewis, Sr.), and their children Julian Antonio Huggins, Crystin Marie Lespeare (Tony), and Rose Marie Marquez (Mark), her daughter Anna Arant Skinner (Corky), and their children Cortney Rachelle Skinner and Chad Riley Skinner, and her daughter Brenda Arant Fox (John), and their children Ian Stone Fox, Patrick Daniel Fox (Rebekah), Mary Rose Fox (Justin Keoninh), and Martin John Fox, as well as six great grandchildren and additional special loved ones Briana Morris, Janelle Frady, Savannah Catron, and Jillian Stokes.

She was a beautiful mother who loved her children and family with all of her heart. Her grandchildren made her eyes sparkle when they called. She faced life with strength and courage. Her wisdom was undeniable. Her laugh reflected the joy in her heart and her smile was exquisite.. She loved the Lord and received great joy from singing, working in the church nursery, attending monthly senior fellowship dinners, participating in musical productions and women's ministry events and being a part of a neighborhood fellowship group. In her quiet time she was a puzzle aficionado.

In earlier years, she ran her own recycling business and enjoyed a menagerie of animals on her ranch. She will be dearly missed.
