Who is Edna Horton?
She was a woman who loved God with all of her heart and soul, Roy, her one and only love, her children and grandchildren, the ocean, books, chocolate, word find puzzles, beautiful music (especially piano), flowers and her little house. She loved to laugh and watch the birds and squirrels out of her living room window. She believed that most things weren't worth worrying over (although she worried). She was a quiet woman with a strong, abiding faith and a courage that God would give strength to all in need if they trusted in him. He never failed her.
The family will receive friends on Thursday, November 9, 2017 from 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm at West Cobb Funeral Home and Crematory in Marietta.
