Remembering Wade Edwards

[benny05]

Wade was killed in a freak accident 12 years ago today. The loss was very hard on JRE and EE.

However, they created the Wade Edwards Learning Lab so that any disadvantaged kids could go by, get homework help, and use the computers for both composition and information seeking.

Blessings to the Edwards family for keeping his name alive in a positive way. And I'm glad I got to know them a little through the blogs and campaigns over the years.

9. What a sad event for the Edwards family. The strength

and love they have for their fellow Americans shines brightly in all their children. I hope for a great place for the Edwards family in this Countries government. They are ready. I hope we will be soon too.
