Bono supports Edge

The Edge and Family Bono went to his friend and musical partner The Edge following the death of his mother.  Bono and wife Ali went to the Dylan Hotel where Edge was seen entering the hotel, with a bible in hand which sources say he had selected scriptures for his mothers service which will take place shortly.
