Obituary

It all began in Carthage, Texas, when Joe and Ethel Bell celebrated the birth of a baby girl on April 10, 1927. They named her Rosie.

After reaching adulthood, Rosie moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1968. Shortly thereafter, she met Jerry Randall Edwards and they were married.

She was a member of Mt. Olive Star Missionary Baptist Church and was a resident of Rentiesville, Oklahoma. She will be missed by those who knew her.

On January 9, 2019, God whispered Rosie's name and she answered his call. She was preceded in death by her parents and other family members who went on before her. She was the last living member of all of her siblings; her brothers, Frank Bell, Joe Bell, Lewis Bell and Clinton Gibbs; her sisters, Please Gibbs, Ada Sango and Susie Coleman; one daughter, Lynette Carrell, two granddaughters, Regina McIntosh and Nikkie Cook, all who preceded her in death.

She leaves to cherish her memory, a host of nieces, nephews, and other relatives. Aunt Rosie was a true blessing to everyone she met and will truly be missed.

The Final Farewell to Mrs. Edwards will be shared on Saturday, January 19, 2019 at 10:00 AM in the Mt. Olive Star Missionary Baptist Church, Warrior Community west of Checotah, Oklahoma. The Pastor, Reverend Samuel Cunningham will officiate.

Burial will follow in the Green Acres Memorial Gardens in Skiatook, Oklahoma.

You may visit Mrs. Edwards, as she slumbers in sweet repose in the Peoples Chapel of the Keith D. Biglow Funeral Directors, Inc., in Muskogee on Friday from 12 Noon until 6:00 PM.
