Edna and her husband farmed north of Clarence for over sixty years. She was a member of Olin Community United Methodist Church, Farm Bureau, Unity Club and Card Club. She was petite in size but a hard working farm partner. She always put others before herself. She enjoyed cooking, dancing and Big Band Music, gardening, and her flowers, especially gladiolas. Her favorite color was red; she chose it in flowers, cars and tractors.
She is survived by two daughters, Janice Hartwig of Long Grove and Gail Freeman of Clarence; one son, Farrel Freeman of Redwood City, California; two grandchildren, Heath (Micki) Hartwig and Kent (Megan) Hartwig; and two great-granddaughters, Shelby and Bailey Hartwig.
