Edna Lee Nash

Obituary for Edna Lee Nash (1953 – 2025) It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Edna Lee Nash, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, who left us on February 27, 2025, at the age of 71. Edna’s warmth, creativity, and nurturing spirit profoundly touched the lives of all who knew her. Edna was born on May 11, 1953, in Jefferson City, TN, to the late Ely and Nola Carter. From a young age, she developed a passion for sewing, quilting, and cooking—talents that would become her lifelong joys. Her home was always filled with the scents of her delicious meals, while many family members cherish the beautiful quilts she crafted with love, each telling a unique story. Edna is survived by her devoted husband of 23 years, William (Bill) C Nash, whose love and support were constants throughout their life together. As a proud mother, Edna leaves behind two children: Robbie (and his wife, Joy) and Brian (and his wife, Sharon). She was the proud grandmother to six grandchildren: Blake, Kenzie (and her husband Josh), Tyler (and his wife Taylor), Rylee, Carly, and Haley, and delighted in watching her family grow with the addition of four great-grandchildren, Hazel, Lane, Adeline, and Grayson. Edna’s bonds extended beyond her immediate family. She cherished her siblings, including her loving sister, Sylvia, and her brother, Jerry, as well as her brother-in-law, Lee, and sister-in-law, Mary. Edna also held dear the countless cousins, nieces, nephews and other extended family members who enriched her life with their love and companionship. A woman of deep faith, Edna was an active member of her local church community at Mt Vale Church of God. Her laughter and kindness will be sorely missed by all her friends and community members. The family will receive friends from 5:00pm – 7:00pm on Monday, March 3, 2025, at Mt Vale Church of God in Jefferson City, with funeral service following at 7:00pm led by Paster T.H. Ferrell. Interment 11:00 am Tuesday in Jefferson Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to the church or a charity of your choice, honoring Edna’s spirit of giving and community service. Edna Lee Nash’s legacy of love, creativity, and devotion to family will forever remain in our hearts. She brought joy and inspiration into our lives, and her memory will continue to live on through the countless lives she touched. She truly was “Granny to All” who entered her life.
