Edith, Joan and I attended South Barkley grade school as students. Edith always had a great smile and happy personality and was glad to see me when I visited at Francesville. One special memory is of her making root beer floats for Joan, Janet and I as we met planning for our 50th Class reunion. My sympathy to Joan, Dale, Barb, Richard, Marlene and the families.
