I was working on posting some of my creations on my Etsy shop today, and just wishing you were here to see everything I have done with my artsy skills since you were last here. Most of the things I make are a tad creepier and kookier than your tastes; but I know that you’d still get a kick out of them because of your ornery sense of humor and wit.
Since you earned your wings; I have painted murals, illustrated, kept painting, shown in galleries all over, wrote and illustrated a book and now have my Halloweenish creations. You know me, the odd ducks who has always wanted Halloween all year. Some bats never change the belfry their drawn to, haha.
One day, I hope we can create odd things together again and have you give your thoughts on all the things I have done.
I miss you. I miss your sense of humor, your sharp tongue and how you always kept everyone one their toes.
Miss and love you,
-g
Miss you Grandma, and think of you often. Hard to believe it has been 16 years since you passed. Love and miss you greatly!
Hello, Gregory!
After doing some research in finding this, and talking to my dad, it is very likely that Edna, and her husband was the people who raised my mom Faye Darlene England. This arrangement was made after a severe dispute between her mom and dad. From what little bit of details my dad seems to remember, John, was her uncle through her dad’s side. John took my mom stay in after the criminal dispute between her biological parents. I’m not quite sure of their names, and the only reason why I know of John is because my dad actually met him a few times. There’s a quite a bit of more detailed information that I can go into, but I think I’m going to end it here with that. I do have some very specific details that would tie my assumption together. I’m not sure where this is going to go, but there is a whole chapter in my life that I’ve been deprived of because of whatever dispute between my mom and her family. I do know several years back that there was an attempt to reach me, but it failed for whatever reason. It would mean a great deal to me if you’d be willing to contact me
My mothers maiden name was Faye Darlene England and she also went by Brandy. She married a couple of times with the last name of Melendez, Martinez, and she was also married to my dad with the last name Senkevech
My name is Jeremy
Thank you for any time you are willing to spend on this!
We have many fond memories of Edna. When we first arrived in Pueblo in 1955, Edna invited us to their home for Thanksgiving dinner on several occasions. As the years went by, we saw her children grow; Edna showed affection to our children. We saw her using the gifts she had been given in many ways over the years. On our last visit to see her on March 13, 2004, she gave us a beautiful African violet plant which has really done well;full of blossoms. Edna will be missed by her family and many friends. We ask for God’s blessings on her children, loved ones and friends. Roy and Ruth Franklin
I have memories of Grandma England during my early childhood in Pueblo, Colorado- the house on Carslile Place- especially her Trolls in the back yard, all of her Hummells and her Cookoo clocks. I remember Grandma “banana curling” my and Trudi’s hair for Sunday School. The big blackboard in the kitchen. The old telephone on the wall.
Many miles and many years have seperated my family from Grandma, but she has been in my thoughts and prayers daily. Her other great-grandchildren in Texas know who she is and was. I hope that she can now look down and see all the children who’s lives she has touched over the years and see that she made an impact on us all. It takes a strong person to raise other peoples children, even her own grandaughter as one of her own.
I send my deepest sympathy to the family and many friends as Grandma will truely be missed by many.
Warmest regards,
Sandy, Mark, Kendall & Brandon
