I am so sorry for all of you, for the lost of Edith. When I lived in Tell City Edith and I had a very good time going to Dairy Queen almost very day. Talking on the phone and working together at Hospital Auxillary. She was my best friend , when I left Tell City , I missed her the most. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
