My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Edie was a wonderful friend to my Aunt Lucy and all our family. We have wonderful memories of lunches together, coming to dinner...sharing stories and laughing! Her trip to St. Louis for my wedding was truly an honor for me.

Edith was instrumental in making me who I am today. She is now with "The Father" and having the most profound love you'll ever feel. There will be a void but she is happy now.
