Sonny, Ellen, Clay and Carina - Edith was a fabulous and vibrant lady. On the few occasions in meeting with her and the entire family, she extended her love to us and welcomed our family to yours. She will be missed.

Our love always.

My sincerest condolence to Edith family for their loss. May the God who binds up the brokenhearted and comfort's all who mourn sustain the family during this sad and difficult time.(Isaiah 61:1,2)

I am very saddened to learn of the passing of Edith. She was a beautiful, loving and caring woman who would do anything for anyone. She always had a big smile on her face and kind words to say. I know she is where she wants to be now, and that is with her beautiful daughter Barbara. We are all very lucky to have had this special lady in our lives. Cherish all the wonderful memories. May she Rest In Peace.
