Edna Irl Lawrence Spencer made her presence known to her proud parents Fred Moody Lawrence Sr and Geneva Manuel Lawrence in Greenwood, MS September 6, 1927. Edna left this world June 13, 2023.   She is preceded in death by her parents, her brother Fred Moody Lawrence Jr., her husband Jim and middle daughter, Patsy.

She is survived by her daughters Cynthia and Beverly and was on this earth long enough to know two grandchildren, Trei Liles and Janie Logan. Janie being her favorite person above everyone else. She knew three great grandchildren and three great great grandchildren.

The best thing about Edna was you always knew where you stood with her and she never held back her opinion.  She was always happy to have company and entertain, utilizing one of her many sets of dishes.  Edna met her husband while on a double date, conveniently leaving her wallet in the car and the rest is history.   She was a master at sewing, making all of her girl's clothes and she baked the best rolls you'd ever put in your mouth.

Her favorite activity was shopping at Talbots, which will suffer a profit loss with her gone.  Edna was a devout southern Baptist and practiced her faith at First Baptist Church in Grenada.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation of your time to a charity of your choice.

A private graveside service will be held at the Oak Hill Cemetery in Water Valley.
