I wanted all of you to know that my beloved friend Edna Comstock, for whom the Edna C. dahlia was bred by her husband, Paul Comstock, and named for her, has passed away.
She died today at 4:30PM, November17th, 2006. She was 94.
I am so seared with grief.
I was her caregiver for nearly 5 years.
The grief is so bad I don't know what to do. Right now is my first night without her.
Whenever you grow a dahlia, I hope you'll think of that dear lady, Edna Comstock.
My Edna C. ...
