Daughter, friends to deliver Edwards eulogies

RALEIGH Details of the funeral provided Thursday show that Cate Edwards will offer her memories along with two of her mother's long-time friends: Hargrave McElroy and Glenn Bergenfield. Edwards' husband, John, is not scheduled to speak.

McElroy was a close friend and a teacher at the high school Edwards' children attended and Bergenfield was one of Edwards' classmates in law school.

A service will be held Saturday at 1 p.m. at Edenton Street United Methodist Church in Raleigh. It's the same church that Edwards turned to after losing her 16-year-old son Wade to a car crash in 1996.

The service is open to the public while the burial will be private. Edwards died Tuesday, six years after she was first diagnosed with cancer.
