Elizabeth J. Edwards, 69, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Wednesday, February 20, 2013. She was born in Bronx, NY to Ralph DeLaFe and Catherine Ingram. While she lived in Midland, Elizabeth attended Ray of Hope Church. Elizabeth always had a smile on her face and it was evident that God's love was all around her. She made sure everyone around her knew who was in control, Jesus Christ. Through all of her struggles in life, she did not want people to be sad for her, but to depend on God, who was her greatest strength. Elizabeth was a beloved mother to her children and will always be cherished in their hearts. Elizabeth was survived by her children, Christina Lopez of Midland, TX; Michael Armijo of Midland, TX; Cathy Barbee of Belen, NM; and Frank Armijo of Lake City, FL; one sister, Ruth Lanham of Lake City, FL; eight grandchildren; four great grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends. Services will be at Ray of Hope Church, 4009 Kniffen, Midland, TX 79705 on Sunday, February 24, 2013, at 3:00 pm. The family requests that all memorials be sent to Ray of Hope Church. Arrangements are under the direction of Nalley-Pickle & Welch Funeral Home & Crematory of Midland.,
