Clarence Johnny Edwards, 58, of 10 West Butler St., died Sunday morning at the 
residence.  Although he had been in declining health for several months, his 
death came unexpectedly.  Mr. Edwards was born in Floyd County on Sept. 17, 
1914, son of the late William H. and Lucy Ely Edwards.  He had spent his entire 
life in Rome and Floyd County and was a member of the New Harmony Baptist 
Church.  His wife, the former Lula Gravely, died on Jan. 2, 1973.  Surviving 
are three sisters, Mrs. Ellis Massey, Mrs. Floyd Lawson and Mrs. Lester Morgan, 
all of Rome: four brothers, R. L. Wesley, Garvin and Floyd Edwards, all of 
Rome; several nieces and nephews.  Funeral services will be conducted at 2 p.m. 
Tuesday at Beech Creek United Methodist Church.  The Revs. Larry Davis and 
Harold Daugherty will officiate.  Interment will be in the family lot of the 
church cemetery.  Active pallbearers will be Curtis, Roger, Mike, Jimmy Leroy, 
Sammy and Charles Edwards and Billy Massey.  The body will lie in state at the 
residence of a sister, Mrs. Floyd Lawson, Rebecca Street, until time for the 
services.  Henderson-Frazier Funeral Home has charge of arrangements. (The Rome
