Edna was predeceased by her husband, parents and sister, Doris.  Visitation will be held on Monday, May 3rd from 10:00-11:00 a.m. in St. Theresa's Parish, followed by a Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. Burial will follow in Notre Dame Cemetery.  In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to South Hadley Council on Aging or Thomas J O'Connor Animal Adoption Center.   For more information, please visit www.beersandstory.com
