My memories of Mr. Edwards go back to my first year as a teacher. He became a supportive principal and helped me through that year and taught me one very valuable lesson: Always clear your room of Christmas decorations before you leave for the holiday! I learned he was so right because it made coming back in January so much easier. He was a fine man, and his entire family is precious. May God comfort all of you during the weeks to come.
To the entire family, I'm so sorry for the loss of Mr. Jim. Praying the Lord will wrap His loving arms around each & everyone of you! The thing I can say about Mr. Jim is his sweet, sweet spirit emulated from him and he would make smile every time I saw him🤗. He will be missed but rest assured we will see him again in our heavenly home. I love you all‼️💞
What wonderful memories Mr. Edwards leaves with us. First from so many at school to great times shared at church. The Christian life that he lived was such a testimony. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family.

I was so scared of the water as a little kid I couldn't enjoy the pool during summer school. Mr. Edwards worked with me every time we went to the pool and he taught me to swim. I'm forever grateful!
We are so sorry for your loss. Jim was such a true man of our Lord and brought many to Jesus and a better life. Joseph and Donnalynn Morin
