Roy “Donald” Edwards, 80, of Cunningham, went home to be with his Lord on Friday, April 7, 2017 at Countryside Healthcare in Bardwell, KY.

 

Donald was a faithful member of Mayfield Creek Baptist Church.  He loved God’s Word, and one of his favorite scriptures was Proverb 3:5-“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding.”

 

Donald was a watch repairman by trade, and was known by many as “the watch man”.  He operated a watch and jewelry repair business in Bardwell, and then out of his home for several years.  He also enjoyed working on his farm and growing vegetables in his garden, most of which he shared with others.

 

He is survived by his uncle, Burl Hite of Cunningham, and several cousins.  He will be greatly missed by his many friends in the community, as well as his church family.

 

Donald was preceded in death by his father, Roy Edwards; his mother, Ila Hite Edwards; and his brother.

 

A special thanks to the staff at Countryside Healthcare for all the loving care shown Donald.

 

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. April 10 at Mayfield Creek Baptist Church, with Pastor Terry Norris officiating.  Burial will follow in Old Mayfield Creek Church cemetery.  Friends may call at Mayfield Creek Baptist Church on Monday from 11:30 a.m. until the funeral hour.  Milner & Orr Funeral Home & Cremation Services are in charge of the arrangements.
