The speaker at the Bryan/College Station area Memorial Day program was Gold Star Mother Mary Kay Edwards of Burleson County.
This August marks 11 years since her son Billy was killed in Iraq while serving in the Army.
Mrs. Edwards shared the continuing tribute of her son. That includes keeping in touch with soldiers who served with her son and last week receiving a letter from Texas A&M…where her son attended for two years…stating someone established a “Ring It Forward” scholarship in Billy Edwards’s name.
“All of that means so much to Bill (her husband) and I, that Billy has never been forgotten and will never be forgotten.”, said Mrs. Edwards.
