Andy, Donna, Boomer George, Fred and all. No words can ever say enough to make the pain disappear, but I know Edie lived each day with love and laughter, and wouldn't have changed a thing she did here on earth. You know God took her because he needed a special events coordinator and he knew she was the best. Right now we're all missing out on some gala events.

We wish you all our deepest sympathy and love.

We can only express our shock and our sympathy for the family. Edith was always the one to help organize and participate in the school reunions. She was a good friend thru grammar school and high school and as a close neighbor. Even though we have lived miles apart, she has remained in our thoughts. We know she will be dearly missed.

Your mother is always with you...

She's the whisper of the leaves

as you walk down the street.

She's the smell of bleach in

your freshly laundered socks.

She's the cool hand on your

brow when you're not well.

Your mother lives inside

your laughter. She's crystallized

in every tear drop...

She's the place you came from,

your first home.. She's the map you

follow with every step that you take.

She's your first love and your first heart

break....and nothing on earth can separate you.

Not time, Not space...

Not even death....

will ever separate you

from your mother....

You carry her inside of you....



All our love and prayers to your whole family at the loss of your wife, mother and grandmother.
