Happy Birthday to Tootsie Edmonson a life long resident of Magee and the oldest member of First Baptist Church of Magee.
I cheated a little when I said life-long resident…Tootsie actually now lives in Jackson with her son Richard. But, up until a few years ago she was born and raised in Simpson County. Tootsie was my mother’s childhood friend and probably the best cook in the state of Mississippi!
Pictured with Tootsie are her children, grandchildren , great grandchildren, and great great grandchildren.
Tootsie always had a smile and laugh for anyone. She played bridge with her friends up until her move to Jackson. Tootsie introduced many people to the world of books through her years at the Magee Library.
We love you Tootsie and thank you for being such a shinning example to everyone!
Tootsie’s real name is Lanell. I don’t think anyone knows her by that name! She has always been everyone’s Tootsie.
